Inpatient Separation Rates (per 1,000 population) for patients residing in the Local Geographic Area (LGA) vs. Alberta: 2015/2016 - 2017/2018
Description
This table provides inpatient separation rates per 1,000 population for patients residing in the local geographic area and Alberta accessing health facilities across all of Alberta. An inpatient separation from a health care facility occurs anytime a patient (or resident) leaves because of death, discharge, sign-out against medical advice or transfer. The number of separations is the most commonly used measure of the utilization of hospital services. Separations, rather than admissions, are used because hospital abstracts for inpatient care are based on information gathered at the time of discharge. This indicator dataset contains information at both Local Geographic Area (for example, Lacombe, Red Deer, Calgary West Bow, etc.) and Alberta levels. Local geographic area refers to 132 geographic areas created by Alberta Health (AH) and Alberta Health Services (AHS) based on census boundaries. This table is the part of "Alberta Health Primary Health Care - Community Profiles" report published March 2019.
