Hospital ED accused of ‘cooking the books’ to hit government targets

A hospital ED is under investigation after clerical staff were accused of doctoring data to hit ambulance ramping targets.
According to media reports, staff at Melbourne’s Northern Hospital have been routinely altering records since 2017 to show patients being offloaded from ambulances within target times.
