Notes: For patients hospitalized outside province/territory of residence, hospitalizations were included in totals for jurisdiction reporting discharge. Of total 2,143,779 hospitalizations (excluding Quebec, missing 1.5% of total), 31,447 could not be classified as admissions from either high- or low-Aboriginal dissemination area because of missing or invalid postal code on discharge record.
