Funded Activity Summary

Assessment of health care utilisation and associated costs are important for planning and allocation of health care resources. In Australia very little is known about the determinants and costs of infant hospitalisation in the first year of life. Through the use of linked population health datasets, this project will examine the patterns and trends of hospital readmissions and inter-hospital transfers, and calculate hospital costs for in-patient admissions during the first year of life.
