Learn

Get ready for healthcare reform with our focused 40-minute webinar. Learn about the upcoming changes related to patient experience (some of which have already been implemented), which aim to enhance the quality and outcomes of healthcare within practices. This 40-minute webinar will ensure you understand the ins and outs of value-based health care, multidisciplinary teams, and how to use patient-reported measures (PROMs and PREMs) effectively. We'll delve into the patient-related aspects of the Strengthening Medicare Taskforce Report, highlighting its implications for primary and secondary care delivery. You will learn about partnering with patients, measuring meaningful outcomes, and understanding how these reforms benefit your practice.

Participants can access a downloadable Kickstarter guide packed with practical tools, including a checklist, action plan, and roadmap to help them adapt seamlessly to these reforms. In addition, participants get tips on patient feedback and patient participation methods to implement in the practice. Plus, participants can access links to reform, standards and regulatory documents referred to during the webinar.  

Breakdown of Learning Time:

• 40 minutes – watch the webinar
• 20 minutes – read the Kickstarter guide, including checklist, action plan, roadmap and tips.  

Undertaking the Australian Health Reform webinar has the potential to attract additional CPD related to:

• Domain 1: Educational Activities – General Learning – Professional Reading (max 50 hrs/year)  - other research via links provided to reform, regulatory and standards documents to ensure the practices' continued compliance with standards and regulatory requirements
• Domain 2: Reviewing Performance and Measuring Outcome – Management and Business Operations (max 50 hrs/year) – by developing or reviewing patient experience-related policies and procedures to improve patient outcomes.

These additional activities must be self-reported separately (please refer to the CPD Home Program Guide 2024) and potentially attract up to the maximum for your CPD.
