An empty cell means no publishable row for that year — unknown, not nil. Never read a blank as a fall to zero. ⚠️ This agency has not always carried its current name. Figures in the earlier years were reported as Independent Hospital Pricing Authority (2011-12 to 2021-22). They are shown here because the series is continuous, not because the agency is. 1 value(s) for this agency are withheld as implausible against its own median — see Outputs/agency_year_series.csv for them and why.
Sources — annual reports
Each link opens transparency.gov.au — the published source the figures were read from. The label names the table to look for.
° The portal does not publish a path for this report, so the link opens the agency's reports on transparency.gov.au rather than that year directly. Pick the year from there.
