APEG data are primarily used by the AIHW (together with National Diabetes Services Scheme (NDSS) Registrant data; NDSS Sales data and National Death Index (NDI) data) to create the National (insulin-treated) Diabetes Register (NDR). The collection of the APEG data by AIHW ceased in 2022.Incident cases of insulin- treated diabetes in young people aged 0–14 years at the time of diagnosis, 1999– 2016, Australia.
