What is the NAHA Report?
Each year, certain organsiations must complete the NAHA report which is submitted to Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) as part of their compliance process. The report is populated by fields in Chintaro and is generated through the Reports and Exports > NAHA / Data Collection Report screen.
The report comprises six worksheets in Excel which have special macros guiding and controlling the input of information. The worksheets are numbered, and comprise of:
1. Provider worksheet
2. Waitlist and Financial
3. Dwelling worksheet
4. Tenancy worksheet
5. Person worksheet
6. Summary
This solution explains where the information is populated from Chintaro and into the report, and relates to the information required for worksheets 3, 4 and 5.
NOTE: If you are a non-Cloud user, the NAHA Report for 2023 requires a new template and will also require you to update your version of Chintaro.
You can download the latest version and update now from these solutions:
What information does the NAHA report need?
When you run the NAHA Report, you will see the cells of the export are coloured (red = incorrect, yellow = may be incorrect and require reviewing, green = must be completed, grey = do not need completing):
Before you begin, you should make sure that you have entered your Organisation ID into the System Maintenance>Reference Tables>Parameters. Your Organisation ID will be found in column B on the Dwelling sheet of the template you received from your state authority.
To minimise the time taken in fixing errors (red cells) when the report is created, you can run an export from Chintaro to see where the data is missing before you create the report. To view the data required for the NAHA Report, run the NAHA Data complete export. This export is found (from the Home Screen), in Reports and Exports > Exports > Tenancies > NAHA Data Complete:
Similarly, you can use the NAHA/Data Collection Report screen to run the files required to view the data (Reports and Exports > NAHA / Data Collection Report):
Use the following 3 sections of this solution can be used to find where the data is populated in Chintaro.
