Hospital bed-days occupied by patients with diabetes
Antony Andrews made this Official Information request to Health Quality and Safety Commission
The request was successful.
From: Antony Andrews
Dear Health Quality and Safety Commission,
I refer to your publication : A Window on the Quality of New Zealand’s Health Care, available online on http://www.hqsc.govt.nz/assets/Health-Qu...
The report shows that the percentage of hospital bed-days occupied by patients with diabetes increased from 9 to 14 percent between 2011 and 2013.
I therefore, would like to request under Official information act to provide me the percentage of hospital bed-days occupied by patients with diabetes for 2014, 2015 and 2016.
I trust you will provide this information as soon as possible.
Yours faithfully,
Antony Andrews
