In 1991, and again in 1992, the Health Information Management Association of Australia (HIMAA), formerly Medical Record Association of Australia (MRAA), distributed a Workforce Survey to all members to collect information about the demographic, professional and employment characteristics of HIMAA members. There was a response rate 66.8% in 1991 and 40% in 1992, which rise to 80.9% in 1991 and 51.7% in 1992 for responses from full members. The collection will continue on an annual basis, providing a cumulative database and the opportunity for trend analysis.
