The Online Services Report (OSR) is reported by organisations receiving funding under the Australian Government's Indigenous Australians’ Health Programme (IAHP) to deliver comprehensive and culturally appropriate primary health care services to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (First Nations) people. It contains contextual information about each organisation as well as aggregate counts of number of clients, episodes of care and FTEs.
Prior to 2018-19, the OSR also included data collected from organisations funded by the Department of Health and Aged Care and/or the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet (function now sitting within the National Indigenous Australians Agency (NIAA)) to provide one or more of the following health services to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people:
- primary health care
- maternal and child health care (between 2012–13 and 2017–18)
- social and emotional wellbeing services
- substance-use services.
