- Description
Excludes newborns with no qualified days, and records that do not relate to admitted patients (boarders and posthumous organ procurement).
Limited to public hospitals in 2007-08 and 2008-09.
National Hospital Cost Data Collection (NHCDC) cost weights for the reporting year (or most recently available) will be used to calculate casemix-adjusted separations.
Casemix adjustment is based on the Australian Refined Diagnosis Related Group (AR-DRG) assigned to each separation.
Data are provided in both current and constant prices (deflated by the ABS Government Final Consumption Expenditure, State and Local—Hospitals and Nursing Homes deflator).
Recurrent expenditure is the expenditure measured in Australian dollars incurred by establishments for a financial year.
Depreciation charges are measured in Australian dollars for a financial year.
IFRAC (inpatient fraction) is the ratio of admitted patient costs to total hospital costs—also known as the admitted patient cost proportion.
Casemix refers to the range and types of patients treated by a hospital or health service.
Presented as dollars.
Total reported recurrent expenditure (excluding depreciation) multiplied by the admitted patient cost proportion (IFRAC) reported for each hospital.
