Australian hospital statistics 2009-10: emergency department care and elective surgery waiting times

Amendments

30 Nov 2010 - The following text added at the end of Table 3.3 on page 33, under notes.
"Following the creation of the integrated Albury-Wodonga Health Service, the management of the Albury Base Hospital transferred to Victoria on 1 July 2009. Activity for this hospital is included in Victoria for 2009–10, whereas it was included in New South Wales for 2008–09. There were 2,478 admissions from elective surgery waiting lists in 2009–10 for Albury Base Hospital. If they had been counted in New South Wales, the total for New South Wales would have been 200,981."

8 Dec 2010 - Chapter 3 has been updated following a resupply of elective surgery waiting times data by the Northern Territory.
