Table 1.
The minimum metadata set (MMS) for the data analysis in this study. The selected 64 key performance indicators (KPIs) of mental healthcare are divided into three input datasets (Service Availability (AVA, labelled as ‘A’), Placement Capacity (PLA, labelled as ‘P’) and Workforce Capacity (WOF, labelled as ‘W’)) and one output dataset (Resource Utilisation (USE, labelled as ‘U’)). The KPIs in each dataset are organised based on the main type of care and the DESDE-LTC classification system [34]
| Indicators (64) | Input (12) | Input (13) | Input (33) | Output (6) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Main type of care | AVA (No. per 100,000 IH) clinical teams |
PLA (No. per 100,000 IH) beds and places |
WOF (No. per 100,000 IH) full-time equivalents |
