Guide for use: | Where available, actual data should be reported. Where actual data are not available, this measure can be calculated by dividing the total contracted patient days by the number of days in the period, e.g. in a normal year, a hospital records 4000 contracted care patient days – the average available contracted care beds would be 4000/365 = 11.0. |

Collection methods: | Beds exclusively or predominantly for overnight-stay admitted care and same-day admitted care are collected and reported. |
