The 12 papers in this Special Issue describe developments across a diverse range of topics, as well as providing an overview of the scope of health statistics in Australia and describing some ongoing gaps and problems. The papers will be of interest to international readers seeking to improve statistics about their health systems. Health statistics need to respect individuals? personal information, be based on common data standards, and have adequate resourcing and committed staffing . The Australian experience provides valuable insights and examples. Australians will benefit from a comprehensive account of what has been achieved and what remains to be addressed. The papers in the Special Issue demonstrate the importance of continuing commitment to the statistical effort. Authors were chosen because of their known expertise in their respective fields. 517 $aHealth Statistics 606 $aHumanities$2bicssc 606 $aSocial interaction$2bicssc 610 $aAboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health 610 $aIndigenous health measurement 610 $alife expectancy 610 $amisleading statistics 610 $amanagement use of information 610 $adata sovereignty 610 $agovernance 610 $amental 610 $aservices 610 $apandemic 610 $aCOVID-19 610 $adata linkage 610 $aAustralia 610 $across-jurisdiction 610 $adental caries 610 $aoral health 610 $aperiodontal disease 610 $atooth loss 610 $ahealth services 610 $adisability 610 $adata gaps 610 $adisability identification 610 $aInternational Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) 610 $aConvention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) 610 $ahealth statistics, disability statistics 610 $ainequalities 610 $aprescribing 610 $aquality use of medicines 610 $amedication safety 610 $apharmacoepidemiology 610 $amedication data 610 $ahealth outcomes 610 $areal-world data 610 $areal-world evidence 610 $amortality data 610 $acause of death 610 $acoronial investigation 610 $acontinuity of care 610 $adata 610 $adementia 610 $ahealth 610 $ahealth service use 610 $aintegration 610 $alast year of life 610 $alinkage 610 $asuicide 610 $aveterans 610 $awelfare 610 $awellbeing 610 $ageneral practice 610 $ahealth services research 610 $aprimary health care 610 $ahealth expenditure 610 $ahealth expenditure projections 610 $adisease expenditure 610 $ahealth expenditure policy 610 $amental health 610 $aaccountability 610 $aquality improvement 610 $apolicy development 610 $ahealth statistics 610 $aAustralian health system 610 $ahealth surveys 610 $aIndigenous 615 7$aHumanities 615 7$aSocial interaction 700 $aMadden$b Richard$4edt$01328770 702 $aMadden$b Richard$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910585939103321 996 $aHealth Statistics$93038922 997 $aUNINA
