The Independent 黑料吃瓜群网 Pricing Authority (IHPA) has听released the first public听consultation paper on the Development of the Australian Mental Health Care Classification.
The Australian Mental Health Care Classification (AMHCC) is designed to improve the way mental health care services can be听classified, counted and costed across admitted and community settings.
Having a nationally adopted classification will allow Australian governments to provide听funding for mental health care services based on Activity Based Funding.听It will also help individual services and service systems better understand how their mental听health services work and where clinical, financial and other resources are applied, 听allowing听for performance benchmarking across similar services.
IHPA has been charged with developing the new national classification by July 2016.
Once the AMHCC is implemented it will assist with:

• 听Increased transparency and improvement in cost predictiveness


• 听Support for new models of mental health care being implemented


• 听Building incentives for best practice integrated community and hospital care.

IHPA is seeking feedback on the proposed structure of the classification and its approach to the development of the system.
The public consultation paper on the Development of the Australian Mental Health Care听Classification is available at .
Submissions should be emailed as an accessible Word document to听submissions.ihpa@ihpa.gov.au or mailed to PO Box 483, Darlinghurst NSW 1300 by 5pm听on Friday 13 February 2015.
