Possible Early Announcement of Rudd Government Response on Health Reform.

The Financial Review today (Feb 24, 2010 -Pages 1 and 6) and ABC News are both reporting rumours / indications that the announcement on the response to the National Health and Hospitals Reform Commission Report (NHHRC) from last year is imminent and not being held back to a Council of Australian Governments meeting which is apparently scheduled for late March, 2010.

The Fin Review is also saying there will be a fair bit of e-Health in whatever is announced.

I have no idea just how true this all is and pass the reports on for what they are worth!

We will all just to have wait and see.

David.

My guess is it probably has a lot of substance reflecting a complete state of panic and confusion at the upper echelons of government. I can just hear the mantra from the PMs office - get it out now - don't wait for COAG or the states to pontificate - just get it out there. Health is so big it will distract media attention away from all the climate change, insurance rebate, and pink bats brouhaha.
