Australian model
The Australian model is an approach to managing health and social services that emphasizes universal access, equity, and social inclusion. It combines publicly funded healthcare (like Medicare) with private services, ensuring all citizens can access essential care regardless of income. The system encourages a focus on prevention, primary care, and community-based services, fostering collaboration between government, healthcare providers, and communities. This model aims to improve health outcomes, reduce disparities, and promote efficient use of resources through a balanced mix of public and private sector contributions.
