| Measuring what Matters: Do Australians have good access to primary health care? |
|
May 10, 2010 Dr Richard Denniss and Josh Fear The Australia Institute has recently released a paper presenting data collected for our Measuring what Matters indicators; which looks at access to primary health care. The paper begins by presenting new data on why people say they wish to see a doctor and then reports the degree of difficulty that Australians experience when attempting to make an appointment. The paper concludes with new data suggesting that the majority of Australians would be willing to see a nurse practitioner for a wide range of services now commonly provided by doctors. The report is available online at https://www.tai.org.au/index.php?q=node%2F19&act=display&type=1&pubid=754 |
