Australia is facing a future of government-managed healthcare and growing rationing of health services unless we embrace market-based reforms,” group managing director Rohan Mead has warned.
In an address to the Australian Medical Association’s national conference in Sydney, Rohan issued a “call to arms” to doctors, government and the broader health sector to make health information more accessible. Information, he says, is one of the keys to improving care to patients and streamlining a system that too often works in silos.
