Auditor-General’s Report on the Annual Financial Report of the State of Victoria: 2017–18 - Small Rural Hospitals

We have developed four data dashboards, which are interactive visualisation tools summarising the financial statement data for all Victorian public hospitals in financial year 2017-2018. They have been grouped into the following cohorts:

Given the large number of small rural hospitals, four of the pages found in the metropolitan, regional and rural data dashboards have been further split:

  • the financial statement page has been split into ‘comprehensive operating statement’ and ‘balance sheet’ pages
  • the operating revenue page has been split into ‘operating revenue and government grants’ and ‘operating revenue excluding government grants’ pages
  • the operating expenses page has been split into ‘operating expenses and employee expenses’ and ‘operating expenses excluding employee expenses’ pages
  • the capital and specific items expenses page has been split into ‘capital and specific items expenses and depreciation & amortisation’ and ‘capital and specific items and expenses excluding depreciation & amortisation’.
