Why This Indicator Matters
Definitions:
These indicators reflect the number of admissions for a physical health service for children to age 19 that were discharged from an inpatient stay. Breakdowns are provided by various age groups (<1 year, 1-9 years, 10-19 years and total for all ages).
The rate represents the total number of discharges divided by 1,000 member months.
The year represents when PPC published the report.
Data Source: PPC's report, along with source documentation, can be found at http://www.papartnerships.org/work/health/childrens-health-reports.
Footnotes:
A weighted average is calculated for this indicator to provide a reflection of the actual rate within each age group.
