How can we help you today?
Since March 2020, general practices and AMSs have changed how they deliver care. From conducting consultations remotely via telehealth and adopting new policies and procedures, to training and retraining staff. Being reform and change ready will equip general practices and AMSs with skills to handle the future of primary health care and learn from and contribute to the changing health care landscape.
The Primary Care Build Back Better program is a two-year initiative which aims to build the capacity and capability of general practices and AMSs for future success and sustainability by developing and strengthening the skills, abilities, processes, and resources needed to survive, adapt, and thrive in a changing environment following the three-year impact of the COVID-19 crisis.
To date activities that have been part of this initiative include:
- emergency SMS grants
- digital capability grants
- funds to address urgent resourcing in response to COVID-19 demands
- funding for after hours, chronic disease management, and service provision.
The Primary Care Build Back Better program will be built into these existing NQPHN-funded programs and is dedicated to:
- developing enhanced leadership skills and abilities to effectively manage reform
- delivering improved data capabilities and capacity for optimal care and practice population management
- building general practice sustainability
- developing change management skills and knowledge
- supporting the uptake and implementation of digital technologies.

Some testimonials from the recently held face-to-face workshops include:
“Workshop was helpful in explaining simply the benefits of registering to MyMedicare as there has been mixed feeling at the outcome and benefits, and it was explained in concepts that are related to daily operational service outcomes”.
“Felt the session was interactive, engaging, provided awareness and education on MyMedicare for long term potential and sustainability”.
