Collection and Usage Attributes
Record the details of the patient's occupation at the time of the incident that led to the workers' compensation claim. Do not provide the patient's current occupation unless the patient is still involved in the same occupation.
Queensland Hospital Admitted Patient Data Collection (QHAPDC):
Must not be null for admitted patient records where Episode of admitted patient care-compensable patient status is code 1 (Workers' Compensation (Queensland)).
Left adjusted and space filled to 30 characters.
Hospital Based Corporate Information System (HBCIS):
Defaults to Occupation from field 22 of the patient registration screen when creating and linking a new compensable entry to an admission. If no occupation exists then Occupation will default to 'UNKNOWN' if <Enter> is pressed or the user may enter an occupation manually.

When linking an existing compensable record to an admission, Occupation remains unchanged (i.e. will not default to Occupation recorded on the patient registration screen).

Public hospitals that do not use an electronic patient management system will need to complete a Motor and Work Injury Interview Questionnaire and provide this information to the facility that records their data.
The workers' compensation data elements are required for a patient who is a Queensland worker with a compensable injury or illness who has elected to be treated as a public patient by a doctor nominated by the hospital, and are used to substantiate a hospital's claim for reimbursement for costs of providing treatment to a patient for compensable injuries.
