Data are generally available 28 days after the completion of the reference month. If a hospital has not provided their data electronically before that time, then the monthly data for that hospital are imputed by an estimation process |
Select and click on one area, district or top-28 hospital from the following groups (click on the legend of the graphs to access the data):
Note that districts that are comprised of only top-28 hospitals will not appear in the 'District Totals for Non-Top 28 Hospitals' category. Totals for these districts will appear in the 'District Totals' category.
Note: Figures for The Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital appear lower from November 2008 due to the implementation of the new CIMHA database.
