New standards for data collection and reporting
The Department of Health and Ageing has provided early notice of the data standards that will apply from July 2024.
A new set of data standards, Aged Care National Minimum Data Set (NMDS) are available to software vendors, developers and providers. The NMDS is a core set of standardised data elements for the collection and reporting of aged care data. New data standards for aged care will be progressively released as part of the NMDS each year.
Releasing the NMDS gives software vendors and providers early notice of the data standards that will apply from July 2024. There is no immediate action needed other than being aware of what is coming. When you are reviewing your systems, forms or policies that relate to the capture of data or intake, keep this information in mind as you will need to capture the new minimum data set from July 4. You may also wish to ask your current/future software platform provider if and when they will be updating the minimum data set.
Having standards across our aged care data systems will give older people, care providers and services, government and researchers the data they need to make informed decisions and choices.
For more information visit the Aged Care National Minimum Data Set 2023-24 through METEOR and the Data Improvements page through GEN Aged Care Data.
