Our vision for a healthy Australia includes health services that are truly integrated and connected. We will see such things as:
- Efficient models of care being used to meet the needs of individuals and resulting in the desired outcomes.
- Hospitals being effectively utilised beyond distinct episodes of care, to also be a resource for: primary, home and community-based care providers throughout a patient’s health journey; active engagement and promotion of primary and alternative care arrangements; and public health initiatives.
Case Studies
These case studies exemplify the recommendations put forward in AHHA’s blueprint for a post-2020 national health agreement and provide current examples of innovative work and best-practice in Australia in healthcare.
