So sick of the patronising ignorant portrayal of General Practice as a source of referrals. We see the most Mental Health out of any other group are highly trained and manage much of it with zero referral. Stop the poorly conceptualised health system illiteracy nonsense.
MBS item for reviewing mental health care plans to be scrapped | AusDoc Quote But it also declares that GPs will be “supported through new guidance” for assessing the mental health needs of patient and referring them to the “most appropriate services”. ausdoc.com.au/news/mbs-item-…
“Generalist leaders must impress upon policy makers that overemphasis on measurable physician performance indicators will come at a cost. If physicians are reduced to assembly-line technicians, much of the real healing work of the person-centred generalist will be in jeopardy.”

The headline says it all. As @johzlim reports the Patient Tax will force practices across South Australia to hike patient out-of-pocket fees or close their doors. We need the Government to save general practice care. The clock is ticking down. #PatientTax abc.net.au/news/2024-03-1…

#rihlive what really happens to Prime Minister Harold Holt? And where is he now living?
#rihlive who would win a match up between @holland_tom and @TonyRobinsonOBE?
#rihlive @holland_tom who do you think is the most underrated female historical figure? (Not counting Liz Truss)
I think this slide says it all. 🎤 drop. Thankyou for sharing so much wisdom Dr Iona Heath. @RACGP #WONCASydney2023 @vikjasoria
Thankyou so much @trishgreenhalgh for your eloquent and poignant address this afternoon at #WONCASydney2023 Your reflection on the distress in our profession was profoundly moving. But my tears were averted by your message of hope. Thankyou for reminding me why I am #justagp
Disappointed in my country today. And frankly, ashamed. I resolve to work harder to elevate the voices of First Nations people in Australia and ensure that they are heard. To Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, I am so so sorry.
I fully expect that bulk-billing of phone or video consultations will soon be a thing of the past. Services Australia have clarified the requirements for GPs to bulk-bill telehealth and it's a bureaucratic nightmare! Thread incoming...
Exactly this. insightplus.mja.com.au/2023/30/a-firs…
Getting stuck into the key issues immediately at the @RACGP SA Women in GP Retreat! So many fabulous female professionals here to support and empower each other!
