Statutory Reporting Overview

This article is part of the systems administration guide. You will require administration access to view the pages mentioned in this article.

Overview

Statutory Reporting requirements vary significantly from one Hospital to the next. Configuration and requirements are by no means a 'one size fits all'. Therefore, it is important to discuss your requirements with your CareRight Project Manager or Clintel Support Consultant.

To successfully generate a report for submission your Statutory body, 

  1. A whole series of configuration need to be undertaken.
  2. Admission and Billing tasks must be completed
  3. Generate the Statutory File

Admission Categories

CareRight includes a default Admission category of GENERAL. This includes and displays every field required for ALL Australian Statutory Reporting. You may find this default contains many fields that are not applicable to the type of admission and Statutory requirements you are required to comply with.

The Data elements of an Admission Category can be modified depending on the requirements for your admissions. We recommend that you set up new admission categories for each of your common admission scenarios to streamline your process.

Setting up your own Admission Category allows for common values to be set as defaults and avoid double handling or repetitive data entry throughout the Admission process.

Admission categories can be linked to individual Locations and Statutory Coding can be configured for each category/location. Click on Data Elements to configure specific codes.

Important Note:

Exclusion of Admissions from  HMDS (WA Health)

CareRight version 6.86 and above, now have a additional tick box to remove an Admission from being added to the HMDS Stats reporting. This only applies, if the Location of the admission is in Western Australia see Admissions - Overview
