Overview - Reform in Primary Health Care

Integration of primary health care alliances

The federal budget announced a total new investment of $7.3 billion over five years into the health system with a focus on improving primary health care

The Federal government has committed to implement several measures to improve primary health care delivery including: after hours services, Medicare Locals (Primary Health Care Organisations – PHCOs), additional 450 Super Clinics, more funding for clinics and nurses to support them, and the roll out of e-health by mid 2012.
But how will government departments and primary health care providers co-ordinate to implement these changes?

This conference will look at:

• Building Super Clinics: development, training and models to utilise the $355 million investment

  alliances

  retain nurses into the industry?
