Classification structure:Help on this term

Tier 2 classes provide a consistent framework for counting non-admitted service events. They are based on an assessment of both the type and specialty of the health-care professional providing the service and the nature of the service provided. This has resulted in a number of classes that is sufficient to ensure clinical meaningfulness and exclusivity across the spectrum of non-admitted services.

The classes are also grouped into a number of categories that reflects the type of service provided and the health-care professionals that typically provide the service. The classes are grouped into four categories, as follows:

  • procedures
  • medical consultation
  • stand-alone diagnostic
  • allied health/clinical nurse specialist intervention.
