The Australian Healthcare and Hospitals Association (AHHA) welcomes the opportunity to contribute to the PHN Business Model Review and Mental Health Flexible Funding Stream Review.
This submission builds on consultation undertaken with health system leaders in developing a blueprint for health reform towards outcomes-focused, value-based health care, and AHHA’s operating model of continuously listening to and engaging with the experiences and evidence from our members and stakeholders, as we contribute to the evolution of our health system.
We encourage the Department to ensure that the PHN Business Model Review adopts a whole-of system lens that enables all stakeholders to come together with certainty and security in improving outcomes, sustainably and equitably into the future.
