MyMedicare and Strengthening Medicare
The Australian Government is committed to improving primary health care for all Australians to lay the foundations for a stronger Medicare.
The Government is responding to the recommendations of the Strengthening Medicare Taskforce Report, which outlined a vision for Australia’s primary care system of the future. Its vision is to enable quality, integrated and person-centred care for all Australians, building on Australia’s Primary Health Care 10 Year Plan 2022 – 2032.
The taskforce identified 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
