Hospital separation rate per 1000 population according to 5 year age group separated by sex and region of residence across 79 Local Government Areas (LGA) in Victoria. To obtain standardised separations rates per 1000 population, hospital separations were divided by the corresponding population estimates for each year according to gender, age group and LGAs to obtain standardised separations rates per 1000 population. Data shows highest incident rate of hospital separations occurred among metropolitan males aged 0–4 years followed by rural males aged 0-4 years, while rural and metropolitan females had higher incident rates among those aged 15–85+ years
