Using person-linked hospitalisation data, we compared International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-coded data with biomarker-classified admission rates for ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI), non-STEMI (NSTEMI) and unstable angina (UA) in Western Australia (WA). Results There were 37 272 ACS admissions in 30 683 patients (64.2%
