Comprehensive Primary Health Care Servicing
The SDT continues to assist, plan, develop, manage and commission delivery of comprehensive primary health care services that are integrated into local and regional health systems throughout Queensland.
Member organisations have identified a need for change in the clinical and program areas of improved client service delivery; introduction of new services; reviewing new revenue streams; and enhanced coordination and cooperation opportunities with other health providers (inc. public hospitals, medical specialists, allied health professionals and private General Practitioners).
The SDT has been working in collaboration with the Regional Development Team to assess and identify opportunities for change and improvement to existing models of care. There is a focus on aligning models with elements of the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) National Partnership Agreements (NPA), and creating particular focus on multifunctional chronic disease and child and maternal health services.
