The Auditor-General has announced just what she’s going to do with the health statistics scandal at the Canberra Hospital.

The objective of the audit is to provide an independent opinion to the ACT Legislative Assembly on:

• the circumstances associated with the alleged misreporting of Canberra Hosiptal Emergency Department performance information;
• the effectiveness of the Health Directorate’s systems and processes for reporting Emergency Department performance information; and
• the financial implications for the Territory associated with any potentially misreported Emergency Department performance information

Would it be too novel a concept to wonder if greater good might be done by funneling all of this time, effort and money into say… increasing the resources needed to improve patient care, rather than the seemingly politically more important goal of Being Seen To Be Doing Something?

Just a suggestion.
