1. Department of Health and Aged Care

Departmental Overview

The Department's role is to provide expert advice to Government, to finance health and aged care services, and to develop strategic directions in the provision of quality, cost-effective health and aged care services to all Australians.

Priority outcomes have been developed to enable all Australians access to appropriate health and aged care services. The Department is responsible for the funding of medical services, medicines and acute care services, and for providing care and/or support for the frail aged, the disabled and their carers. The Department is committed to improving the health status of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, to improving access to quality care for Australians living in rural and remote regions, and to considering the needs of other disadvantaged groups. Strategies are being developed in consultation with other agencies and relevant stakeholders to help minimise the incidence and severity of preventable mortality, illness, injury and disability, and to improve the quality, integration and effectiveness of care.

The Department is committed to a collaborative approach to the planning and implementation of best practice medicine and aged care facilities. Divisions work in partnership with other governments, professional bodies, other key stakeholders and the community, and demonstrate teamwork and leadership in the health and aged care sector.

During 1999-00 the Department will be negotiating a new certified agreement with personnel, and will continue to find effective ways to manage information and communication across the portfolio. Divisions will also be administering the transition to the new outcome structure, which will have implications for financial management and performance reporting across the Department.

Further information on the role of the Department can be found under the description of each of the Portfolio Outcomes.

2. Australia New Zealand Food Authority

Agency Overview

The Australia New Zealand Food Authority (ANZFA), in cooperation with the Australian Commonwealth, State, and Territory governments and the New Zealand Government, develops food standards and other food regulatory measures for Australia and New Zealand. Once the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Council (ANZFSC) approves a food standard they are published in the 'Food Standards Code' and are adopted by reference in State and Territory law. Food standards are gazetted in New Zealand by the New Zealand Minister of Health.

In Australia, ANZFA also:
  • coordinates the surveillance of food;
  • coordinates food product recalls in cooperation with the States and Territories;
  • conducts research on matters that may be included in a food standard;
  • undertakes food safety education initiatives in cooperation with the States and Territories;
  • develops codes of practice for industry on any matter that may be included in a food standard; and
  • develops risk assessment policies for foods imported into Australia.
Further information on the role of ANZFA can be found under Outcome 1.

3. Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency

Agency Overview

Activities of the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) during 1999-00 reflect the functions of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) as expressed in the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Act 1998.

During 1999-00 the Agency will continue to implement new regulatory controls in respect of all Commonwealth radiation and nuclear activities. Other priorities include: regulating the siting, construction, commissioning and operation of the proposed replacement research reactor; promotion of uniformity in radiation protection law in Australia; the clean-up of Maralinga; participation in the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty; and informing and educating in relation to the safe use of medical radiation and UV and other non-ionising radiation.

ARPANSA commenced operations on 5 February 1999. To provide better comparability with the 1999-00 budget, the 1998-99 actual revenues and expenses for ARPANSA have been estimated by combining information from ARPANSA, the former Nuclear Safety Bureau and the former Australian Radiation Laboratory.

4. Health Insurance Commission

Agency Overview

The Health Insurance Commission (HIC) is a statutory authority created under the Health Insurance Act 1973, within the Health and Aged Care Portfolio.

The HIC administers a range of government programs on behalf of the Department of Health and Aged Care, including Medicare, Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS), aspects of the 30% Private Health Insurance Rebate, Australian Childhood Immunisation Register (ACIR), General Practice Immunisation Incentives (GPII), Practice Incentives Program (PIP), payments to hearing services providers, and compensation recoveries for Medicare and nursing home benefits. The HIC also administers the Commonwealth Childcare Rebate and Veterans' Treatment Accounts for other Departments.

In most of these programs, the HIC processes claims and benefits and records relevant data. The HIC is also responsible for preventing and detecting the occurrence of fraud and inappropriate servicing within Medicare and the PBS.

The relationship between the HIC and the Department is underpinned by a service level agreement, known as the Strategic Partnership Agreement, and by a funding agreement, known as the Output Pricing Agreement.
