You can download a copy - only a few short pages with 15 recommendations - from this link:

In summary I think it is fair to say that ACHI sees Medicare Locals (ML) as very much a work in progress that really need a great more clarity on what they should do and what is the evidence supporting the various current and proposed ML activities and associated spending.
Have a quick read to find out more.
I would be interested in links to other submissions people know about - other than the AMA submission which was covered earlier on the blog.

David.
This blog is totally independent, unpaid and has only three major objectives.
The first is to inform readers of news and happenings in the e-Health domain, both here in Australia and world-wide.
The second is to provide commentary on e-Health in Australia and to foster improvement where I can.
The third is to encourage discussion of the matters raised in the blog so hopefully readers can get a balanced view of what is really happening and what successes are being achieved.
