Collection and Usage Attributes
Geographic area/health service cluster is based on declared public sector service areas for Hospital and Health Services, but allocated to all public and private health service facilities.

Primarily, the codes represent geographic areas of Queensland that provide health services to the community.

Exception to geographic area:
Health service cluster is a group of 'like' health services that are not geographically aligned (e.g. code 121 Children's Health Queensland which is assigned to children's health service facilities regardless of location).

Exclusion:
Facilities created for administrative purposes (e.g. corporate facilities, interstate facilities) are not allocated a geographic area/health service cluster.
Corporate Reference Data System (CRDS) Facility data set: May be blank.
Corporate Reference Data System (CRDS) Facility data set:
Geographic area/health service cluster is termed 'subunit'.
