Aged care data avail
April 9, 2014
The Government has launched
the National Aged Care Data
Clearinghouse, an independent and
centralised repository of aged care
data.
The database aimed to encourage
transparency and independence
in aged care policy research and
evaluation by providing data in
a timely manner, the Australian
Institute of Health and Welfare
(AIHW) said.
The Clearinghouse, part of the
Government’s ‘Living Longer,
Living Better’ reform measures,
can provide statistical information
within a range of national programs
including residential aged care,
aged care packages and the Aged
Care Assessment program.
It can also provide customised
data analysis, according to the
AIHW’s website.
