Indicator set. National Healthcare Agreement (2022) Health, Standard 24/09/2021 Outcome area: Aged Care Waiting time in months is calculated separately for each HCP level and priority. Wait times measured at the 50th (median) and 90th percentile of the range for all waiting time calculations during the reporting period. Aged care recipient—ACAT approval date Data source type: Administrative by-product data Aged care recipient—assigned HCP priority—high or medium Data source type: Administrative by-product data Aged care recipient—assigned HCP level 1, 2, 3 and 4 Data source type: Administrative by-product data Aged care recipient—HCP assignment date Data source type: Administrative by-product data Disaggregation by assigned HCP level is based on which of the four HCP levels the person was assigned to. The HCP levels are: Level 1: to support those with basic care needs Level 2: to support those with low-level care needs Level 3: to support those with intermediate care needs Level 4: to support those with high care needs. Disaggregation by state and territory is based on the location of the person assigned the HCP, according to the address entered in My Aged Care for that person. Disaggregation by priority of service is based on whether the HCP has been assigned to the high or medium part of the National Priority System (NPS). A person's priority for service is determined at the time of their assessment. Aged care recipient—assigned HCP level 1, 2, 3 and 4 Data source type: Administrative by-product data Aged care recipient—geographical location of the place of residence of the person assigned the HCP Data source type: Administrative by-product data Street address (or postcode where street address is not available) Used for disaggregation by state/territory Aged care recipient—assigned HCP priority—high or medium Data source type: Administrative by-product data
