Computation description: | Computation will be appropriate to the target population and corresponding available data, including jurisdiction demand data and SDAC enhancements. Service system-identified unmet demand as a proportion of confirmed demand—computation based on confirmed demand measured at jurisdiction level (under Priority A deliverable 3, jurisdiction demand data are planned to be available from 2010). This measure is based on jurisdiction demand data. |
Computation: | ∑r i / ∑n i |
Numerator: | Number of eligible persons aged 0–64 years waiting to commence service or waiting for additional service (from jurisdiction demand systems). |
Numerator data elements: | |
Denominator: | Number of persons aged 0–64 years who require and are eligible for disability support services, including persons receiving and not receiving services (from jurisdiction demand systems). |

Further data development / collection required: | Indicators (e.1) and (e.2) require significant data development and are not being reported for the baseline CRC report. An interim measure for (e.3) will be available. Indicator (e.1) is intended to give a service system identified measure of unmet demand as a proportion of confirmed demand. Definitional work to inform data development for Indicator (e.1) is proceeding under NDA Priority A Deliverable 3.This indicator will be based on jurisdiction demand data, which will need to be comparable with regards to definitions, items and computation methods.
