The Australian model of GP owned private general practice has been responsible for our international reputation as an efficient and highly effective primary health care service. The continuation of high quality primary healthcare in Australia is dependent on the continued viability of the Practices that provide the leadership and infrastructure that allows GPs to practice, and patients to access the healthcare system.
