Media doorstop to follow up on National Rural Maternity Forum RDAA President Megan Belot with ACM & @RuralHC_Aus

Somebody please explain this to me as if I’m 5yo: - Medicare rebates <half the value of a GP consult - We are building urgent care centres & funding them better than Primary Care - If GPs don’t bulk bill enough, we are taxing them to make them more inaccessible Mark Butler MP

But, all the while, GPs doing what GPs do best is STILL the cheapest, most efficient healthcare provision to fund, instead getting derailed by UCCs & payroll tax 🤔 What on earth is happening to Primary Care funding in Aus?! Anthony Albanese Jim Chalmers MP Royal Australian College of GPs (RACGP) President AMA President


Well, there you have it Mark Butler MP Anthony Albanese The [expensive] Urgent Care Centres aren’t having much impact in reducing ED pressures. Maybe it’s time to stop starving the patient rebates for GP visits, and fund Primary Care? Recognise continuity & its potential? #auspol



Rural medicine is in good hands with leaders like these 2 Dr Marian Dover and RDAA President Elect Sarah Chalmers 💉💉💉
