Comments: | Most recent data available for 2012 CRC report: 2009–10 Baseline: 2006–07 The scope of the National Hospital Morbidity Database (NHMD) is episodes of care for admitted patients in essentially all hospitals in Australia, including public and private acute and psychiatric hospitals, free-standing day hospital facilities, alcohol and drug treatment hospitals and dental hospitals. Potentially preventable hospitalisations are called ‘ambulatory care sensitive hospitalisations’ in some jurisdictions. |
