The Liberal and National Country Parties pledged if elected to expand patient choice within Medibank in Canberra hospitals. They would negotiate with the ACT Medical Association to ensure patients can choose between private or salaried specialists as far as possible. The plan contrasts with the current fee-for-service and mixed health centres approach and aims to review pensioner bed charges and empower women’s health needs while reforming the ACT Health Commission to allow one nurse commissioner.
