Comments:![]() | Data for MBS Items 709 and 711 (Healthy Kids Check) include Indigenous children who receive these checks. It is therefore not possible to produce an Indigenous disaggregation. MBS item numbers change over time and need to be updated as required. Indigenous Experimental Population Projections are available by 5 year age group, not by single year of age. Estimates for Indigenous children aged 4 years old are used. Most recent data available for 2011 CRC report: 2009–10 |
