PI 17 - AUDIT-C result
Proportion of regular clients who had an AUDIT-C with results (score) within specified levels.
Notes
- User may select between AIHW's definition of Regular Client (attended the OATSIH-funded primary health care service at least 3 times in 2 years), or Communicare's Current Patient status.
- Patients must be recorded as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander or both.
- Any numeric qualifier with an export code of AUDITC is considered an AUDIT-C result. For example, in Check up;alcohol;AUDIT-C, the three Alcohol audit interview questions must have a value and the Alcohol AUDIT-C total must be calculated. These four qualifiers can be added to any clinical item to augment data collection. For more information, seeExport codes.
