(b) The tertiary catchments correspond with the Health Service Providers’ (HSP) boundaries. The HSP boundaries were developed in response to the Health Act 2016. The boundaries use the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) from the Australian Bureau of Statistics and Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2) are used as the building blocks for each HSP. Each SA2 is allocated to an HSP based on the inpatient and emergency department flows, thus an SA2 where the majority of separations and presentations are for hospitals in North Metropolitan Health Service (NMHS) will be assigned to NMHS. (c) HSP boundaries including tertiary catchments are reviewed as part of the update of the Clinical Services Framework, or if required by changes to service delivery models. (i) The Clinical Services Framework review process is currently being redesigned.
