Description
IntelPlus combines information from multiple data sources providing a data warehouse for the patient centric Clinical Costing Data that is costed in the costing engine CostPro. The data is pre-validated using defined business rules in a staging warehouse prior to transfer to site databases for the purposes of costing. In addition, it is a data repository allowing reporting functionality using business intelligence tools over the patient centric activity and costing data.
CostPro is a patient centric costing engine that undertakes product level costing of patient activity. CostPro allows you to determine the fully absorbed cost of patient activity, cost drivers and implications. It delivers complete transparency of overhead allocations and the ability to quickly audit and track where costs have been allocated within the organization.
The final costed data is then loaded back into IntelPlus tables providing the cost of each patient's episode. Any changes in the costing data structures are then reflected in the final cost outcomes for each episode once the costing update process is run.

-Townsville
-West Moreton.
Published Outputs
Routine and adhoc reports will be developed by Hospital and Health Service costing teams and the Department of Health (DoH) using available business intelligence reporting tools.
Frequency of Updates
Daily where system to system transfer of data can be enabled. However, for most systems updates will be weekly or monthly.
Information Security Classification
SENSITIVE
Accessibility
In system security model managed at application level with defined users. At the discretion of HHSs and DoH.
Access Constraints
Only named users have access to the system using Novell Identification login processes.
Use Constraints
Patient centric data excludes patient identifiable fields excepting medical record number.
Methodology
Data extracts
Statistical Unit
Reporting Requirements
Numerous reports are provided from the system at HHS and DoH level to meet business and clinical analysis of activity.
Frequency of Reporting Requirements
An annual extract routine from each database is run to meet jurisdictional and national reporting requirements for the National Hospital Cost Data Collection (NHCDC) and Financial Residential Activity Collection (FRAC).
