Hospitals—Patients medically fit for discharge
498. Hon Simon Ehrenfeld to the parliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Health:
I refer to the state government's $18.6 million investment in a real-time data platform to give visibility across the WA health network, including medically fit for discharge patients.
(1) For each month since January 2022, how many bed days have been occupied by patients who were medically fit for discharge?
(2) How many bed days were filled by patients who were medically fit for discharge and awaiting transfer to an aged-care facility, broken down by each month since 2022?
Hon Pierre Yang replied:
I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. I provide the following on behalf of the Minister for Health.
(1)–(2) The information the member is seeking cannot be provided in the limited timeframe. I ask the member to please put this question on notice.
