Project objectives
HPA has developed projections for the NSW Health system since 2006, originally for subacute services, and from 2010 for acute care services and other areas, updating them over time. The projections inform capital and recurrent investment decisions.
For the 2015 project, the Ministry was seeking to develop projections based on best practice methods as well as reflect recent trends in the need for health care and service delivery changes (including new models of care).
An operational update followed in 2021.
