After Hours Primary Medical Care Trials National Evaluation Report

THIS DOCUMENT HAS BEEN RESCINDED

Please note the information in this publication may no longer be current but is retained on our website for historical or research purposes.

By December 1998 a total of four trials (Hobart, Central Grampians, Maitland, Central Sydney/Broken Hill) had been selected to test different After Hours Primary Medical Care service delivery and funding arrangements. The selected models were developed as a response to local problems in the delivery of after hours primary care services, and their selection was based on the extent to which the proposed models suited local conditions. The evaluation of the models, which was implemented after the selection of the models, has been designed to determine the extent to which the different models of after hours primary care contributed to:

• improved client outcomes;
• more efficient delivery of services which are more responsive to client's needs; and
• more efficient ways of funding and delivering services.

This report was released in June 2002.
