Single Employer Model. What is it and what will it mean for health access?
The Prime Minister and premiers have supported the "Single-Employer Model" across several states. It is being rolled out in many rural and regional Australian locations, but what is it, and how will it impact access to health? The Single-Employer Model is sometimes referred to as the “Murrumbidgee Model”. This week we spoke to Dr Alam Yoosuff, Director of Primary Care - Murrumbidgee Local Health District, who was one of the key people who brought together and implemented the model. Dr Yoosuff explains the model, how it works and how others may look to implement it across different areas.
