In the ISPHC NBEDS, babies do not need to fulfil all the requirements of being an Indigenous regular client, as long as they have a file at the health organisation.

The birthweight may have been recorded during an appointment or received from sharing client data with other organisations, such as a hospital.

In the ISPHC NBEDS only aggregated data with CODE 1 are provided to the AIHW.
