Kylie Maree Greenaway died at St George Hospital in Sydney on August 25, 2010 following her transfer from Dubbo Hospital two days earlier.
Ms Greenaway, 29, had undergone elective surgery for an abdominal hernia on August 19.
The inquest, being heard in Dubbo by Magistrate Hugh Dillon, is scheduled to run until Thursday.
Issues likely to be explored include the adequacy of the surgery, the cause of a perforation in the bowel and the adequacy of post-operative care.
Ms Greenaway was the daughter of Steve and Noeline, mother of Hayden and sister of Nigel and Jason.
Her grave-side funeral service was held at the New Dubbo Cemetery on September 1, 2010.
