AHHA is Australia’s national peak body for public hospitals and health care providers. Our membership includes state health departments, Local Hospital Networks and public hospitals, community health services, Primary Health Networks and primary healthcare providers, aged care providers, universities, individual health professionals and academics. As such, we are uniquely placed to be an independent, national voice for universal high-quality healthcare to benefit the
whole community.
AHHA supports moving the health system towards a patient centred, outcomes focussed and value based system. Essential elements of these principals are the coordination of care across healthcare settings, patient data (both service and outcomes related) being both compatible and portable between healthcare providers and a move away from episodic volume based healthcare.
