Findings from this report:
-
Differences in health outcomes between CALD groups are more apparent when data are presented at the most detailed level
-
Linked data can supplement information in other data sets to better identify CALD populations
-
Cultural and linguistic diversity is a complex concept; identifying all CALD populations requires a range of information
-
Linkage rates and linkage quality can vary by CALD group and are important considerations when using linked data
