In its bid to ensure rural Victorian communities have access to the highest quality healthcare they need and deserve, the Victorian government has launched a $32 million GP grants program to attract Rural Generalists and specialist rural General Practitioners.

The program is offering up to 800 grants of up to $40,000 per successful applicant. The incentive is paid in three instalments to support training requirements and contribute towards the cost of assessment.

To be eligible, you must:

• meet the relevant citizenship, qualification, registration, and training requirements
• Undertaking GP training in Victoria in 2024 or 2025 and meeting the requirements as per the guidelines
• have applied, enrolled and been accepted on or after 27 November 2022 into the ACRRM Fellowship program in Victoria and have commenced training in 2023.

The full eligibility framework for these grants can be found on the Victoria Department of Health website here. Please note there are limited grants available and ACRRM will be administering these grants strictly on this reviewed framework.
