The uncertainty surrounding the viability of general practice in Australia should come as no surprise.
Freezes on Medicare rebates, the dearth of GPs in rural and regional areas and the pre-pandemic reliance on international medical graduates which had its recruitment pipeline shut down because of border closures have all taken their toll. Add to that the continual policy rollout (think patient enrolment, pathology agreements) and the general undervaluing of the work done in general practice.
