The National Council of Primary Care Doctors (NCPCD)* has come together to progress key issues affecting the health and wellbeing of Australians.
In its most recent meeting, the main areas of ongoing concern were around the progression of the Primary Care Review and the resulting lack of funding for General Practice services, the pressures on the GP workforce over a year into the COVID-19 pandemic, and the engagement of GPs across the scope of disaster planning.
*The National Council of Primary Care Doctors (NCPCD) represents the interests of general practice and primary care in Australia, comprising leaders from the Australian Medical Association (AMA), Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP), Rural Doctors Association of Australia (RDAA), Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine (ACRRM), General Practice Supervisors Australia (GPSA), General Practice Registrars Australia (GPRA) and Australian Indigenous Doctors Association (AIDA).
