Online Services Report Technical Documentation

This technical documentation provides guidance on the Online Services Report (OSR) process, focusing on the accurate recording of data points during clinical consultations. The document outlines various components of the OSR, including definitions of key terms such as 'Indigenous status of a Patient' and 'Visit/Client Contact.' It details the methodology for generating reports on episodes of care and client contacts across different categories of healthcare professionals. The OSR is designed to capture comprehensive data on client interactions, disaggregated by ethnicity and sex at birth. The documentation includes specific sections for various types of client contacts, such as those with general staff, medical specialists, and allied health professionals. Additionally, it describes the reporting requirements for each category, ensuring that all relevant data is collected and reported accurately. This structured approach aims to enhance the effectiveness of OSR reports and improve clinical outcomes.
