Casemix is the term used to describe the types of patients being treated in hospitals. During the 1980s, the main casemix classification adopted in Australia utilised diagnosis related groups (DRGs) and Australian Governments are now moving towards output-based funding of hospitals using DRGs. Changes to hospital funding mechanisms, increased focus on the output or product of hospital services and the availability of more information linking service provision to costs will have an impact on all nurses employed in hospital settings.

In some African countries 10%-15% of the middle class may due during the 1990s and at the present time the human infrastructure is being eroded by HIV. Over 90% of home and community care is being supervised by nursing and midwifery personnel in some developing countries. What will happen if these carers become ill or die? Peter Kerr provided a micro view of HIV disease in developing countries in 'Health care crisis in Africa', August ANJ. In this article he discusses the macro implications for developing countries as they encounter the consequences of what is likely to be the most devastating epidemic of this century.
