A Mental Health Care Cluster Super Class is identified during the process of assigning a Mental Health Care Cluster to a PATIENT.  It enables the number of applicable Mental Health Care Clusters to be narrowed down, by deciding if the origin of the presenting condition is primarily:

• non-psychotic
• psychotic or
• organic

If the PATIENT cannot be assigned to a Mental Health Care Cluster, MENTAL HEALTH CARE CLUSTER SUPER CLASS CODE is recorded as National Code Z 'Unable to assign PATIENT to Mental Health Care Cluster', and the PATIENT will automatically be assigned to Mental Health Care Cluster 0 (Variance).

Further information relating to the Mental Health Clustering Tool and Mental Health Care Clusters is available from the Department of Health Developing Payment By Results for Mental Health website.
