Aggregate Data Collections

What is the ADC?

The Aggregate Data Collections (ADC) collects aggregate (or summary level) data on ‘Admitted’ and ‘Non-admitted’ patient activity and ‘Bed Availability’.

These data are submitted monthly to the Data Operations Unit of the department by the relevant reporting entities at different levels of the Queensland public hospital system. Reporting entities include public acute hospitals, public psychiatric hospitals and public nursing homes/hostels/ independent living units and multi-purpose health services, HHS and State. Whilst data are primarily reported to comply with State and Commonwealth Government reporting requirements, there are additional benefits of the availability of this data including informing cost modelling, funding, research and local business management.
