The 2020 Allied Health Improvement Group, in partnership with the Australasian Allied Health Benchmarking Consortium (AAHBC) has been collecting, reporting and comparing Allied Health activity data for over 18 years.
Your data is used to drive change and innovation in the delivery of patient care across Australia and New Zealand.
In 2019, Health Roundtable benchmarked 5.1 million Allied Hours of service across 900,000 patients looking for service outliers and trying to help identify if more or less is better.
Our exclusive reports focuses on Allied Health hospital activity for Inpatients, Outpatients and ED patients highlighting key insights into your facility including variation and exemplars.
Our unique Workshop creates collaboration and innovation sharing of best practice across Australia and New Zealand members. After our Allied Health Workshop, you will have analysed your data, highlighted an opportunity, leveraged best practice and have an implementation plan ready to present to the workshop the following year.
