The locally reported Clinic NMDS Tier 1 code has the synonymous name CLI_NMDS_TYPE_CODE. The nationally reported Outpatient Clinic Type code has the synonymous name OUTPATIENT_CLINIC_TYPE. Non-clinical care, ancillary services and services provided in community health settings (e.g. community and child health centres) are out-of-scope for the nationally reported OUTPATIENT_CLINIC_TYPE code. For this reason, the following local NAPAAWL codes are excluded from national reporting: Clinic NMDS Tier 1 (NAPAAWL codes) | 000.000 Non-clinical care | 070.000 Community / Home care | 070.001 Community / Home care | 080.000 Psychiatry | 080.001 Psychiatry | 085.000 Drug and Alcohol | 085.001 Drug and Alcohol | 090.000 Diagnostic Imaging / Radiology | 090.001 Diagnostic Imaging / Radiology | 091.000 Pathology | 091.001 Pathology | 092.000 Pharmacy | 092.001 Pharmacy | 099.000 Non-clinical Home and Community Care (HACC) |
