Identifying and addressing unwarranted clinical variation in hip fracture care to improve health outcomes

通过减少并发症、住院时间、再入院率和死亡率，识别和处理无根据的临床变异（UCV）可显著改善健康结果。这一创新的国家数据链接项目将确定在髋部骨折的服务提供和结果中不合理的临床差异，并首次对观察到的差异进行定价，以推动澳大利亚髋部骨折患者的实践和健康结果的改善。

Identifying and addressing unwarranted clinical variation (UCV) results in measurable improvements in health outcomes through reduced complications, length of stay, readmissions and mortality. This innovative national data-linkage project will identify unwarranted clinical variation in service delivery and outcomes for hip fracture, and for the first time, put a price on the observed variation to drive improvements in practice and health outcomes for hip fracture patients in Australia.
