The production of the QPR involves numerous steps including:

clinical coding of data;

receipt of data on patient experience and safety and quality metrics;

validation of data;

report preparation;

receipt of feedback from stakeholders and incorporation into the Report;

clearance of the Report by Executive management in ACTHD, CHS and CPHB;

preparation of feature article content;

Minister approval; and

upload of the Report to the website.

As work for the QPR is considered ‘business as usual’ in the ACT Government, comprehensive records are not kept of all staff who contributed to the Report preparation.

(3b) There have been no consultants or third parties (beyond the Directorate and Canberra Health Services) who have worked on the Quarterly Performance Report since 2015-16.

(3c) Not applicable

(3d) Not applicable

(4) There is no intentional lag in releasing the Report. As detailed in (2) the timing of the report’s release is due to clinical coding of data and data quality checks, as well as the required clearances of report content. The ACTHD works to the following schedule for publishing reports:

Quarter 1 July to September report – published end of December

Quarter 2 October to December report – published end of March

Quarter 3 January to March report – published end of June

Quarter 4 April to June Report – published end of September.

Once the Quarterly Performance Report is approved by the Minister for Health, the ACTHD Media team publishes the Report as soon as practicable.

(5) The publication dates for QPRs from 2015-16 to 2021-22 (Quarter 2) are:
