About VAHI

The Victorian Agency for Health Information was created as part of Victorian Government reforms to overhaul quality and safety across Victoria’s healthcare system. By analysing and sharing information across Victoria’s healthcare system, we will build an accurate picture of hospital and health service performance. Our initiatives will enhance the flow of timely, accurate and meaningful information to those responsible for health service oversight including health service boards, management and clinicians.
