Review: In response to the growing demand and signs of pressure on the health system (such as increased instances of hospital bypass by ambulances, congested emergency departments and long waits for inpatient beds) during 2001-02 the Department of Human Services (DHS) implemented its Hospital Demand Management Strategy (HDMS). The HDMS is a 6-year funding strategy to address the increasing demand on the acute health system. This audit does not attempt a full evaluation of the HDMS, but many of the initiatives examined in the audit were funded under the strategy.
