The Australian Government is committed to improving primary health care for all Australians, announcing an $11.8 billion investment toward Strengthening Medicare through the 2022–23, 2023–24 and 2024–25 Budgets to lay the foundations for a stronger Medicare.

Strengthening Medicare aims to improve 4 priority areas for primary care reform:

• Increasing access to primary care
• Encouraging multidisciplinary team-based care
• Modernising primary care
• Supporting change management and cultural change.

Learn more about the practical ways these are going to be achieved and how we will support this as an organisation below.
