Ongoing work with Patient Safety & Clinical Quality to identify more data based approach to assessing eligibility for stroke premium payment. Phase 4: Linking with national benchmarking initiatives Where possible, the QoCR Stroke Module has utilised the same data definition as that of AuSCR/AuSDaT to ensure compatibility. Data extracts will be developed to facilitate export to AuSCR/AuSDaT once the WA Stroke Data Collection has become has matured.
