Collection and Usage Attributes
Queensland Hospital Admitted Patient Data Collection (QHAPDC):
As part of QHAPDC processing of admitted patient data by SSB, DRGs are calculated using the "derived from" related data items and any discrepancies with facility calculated items are queried with the facility. Multiple AR-DRG version codes are generated and made available by the SSB for funding and reporting purposes.

Queensland Trauma Data Collection:
ATR validation: valid code
ATR correspondence: single
Used for comparability of diagnosis groups for hospital benchmarking utilised in both Australia and New Zealand.
The development of the Australian Refined Diagnosis Related Groups (AR-DRG) has created a descriptive framework for studying hospitalisation. DRGs provide a summary of the varied reasons for hospitalisation and the complexity of cases a hospital treats. Moreover, as a framework for describing the products of a hospital (that is, patients receiving services), they allow meaningful comparisons of hospitals' efficiency and effectiveness under alternative systems of health care provision.
Queensland Hospital Admitted Patient Data Collection (QHAPDC):
