- Organisation engaging in activity: Patient Safety & Healthcare Human Factors, University of South Australia
Title: CareTrack Australia
Description: CareTrack Australia will establish a national population survey to identify and access healthcare records for 1,000 randomly selected, consenting patients for three years. Consenting patients healthcare records will be reviewed and data extracted to determine the percentage of healthcare encounters at which Australians receive evidence based care for 50 common conditions. Semi-structured interviews with a sub-set of patients and healthcare providers will be conducted to examine the drivers of healthcare practice and to demonstrate the feasibility of applying the CareTrack Australia methology. This methology will enable the measurement and monitoring of safety and quality on an ongoing basis on a national scale and across a variety of healthcare practices and settings and provide a sustainable way to track improvements in healthcare.
