Advocacy in Conversation – EP6: Strengthening Medicare

John Bruning CEO sits down with Catherine Maloney, CEO of SARRAH, and Karen Booth, President of APNA and member of the Strengthening Medicare Taskforce, to discuss healthcare models, workforce capabilities, and funding arrangements required to reform Australian healthcare. In this episode, the panel talks openly about the Taskforce objectives and recommendations, funding barriers and enablers for professionals and providers, access and equity challenges for communities, multidisciplinary teams as well as the future of career pathways and education for health professionals. This robust conversation highlights the power of advocacy to increase health literacy, expand paramedic, nursing and allied health opportunities, and improve person-centred care and outcomes in the community. Credits: Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/nick-petrov/diving-in-the-sky   License code: 3U3MZPP0RFJHPAQW
