Better health and ageing for all Australians

Primary Care Infrastructure Grants

In 2010 and 2011, the Australian Government invested $117 million in Primary Care Infrastructure Grants to upgrade around 425 general practices, primary care and community health services, and Aboriginal Medical Services to provide expanded accommodation for general practitioners and other health professionals; improve access to integrated GP and primary health care services; and offer extended hours of opening and clinical training facilities.

The Primary Care Infrastructure Grants have been provided through two rounds in 2010 and 2011 across three streams of funding:

    • Stream A - grants of up to $150,000 each
    • Stream B - grants of up to $300,000 each
    • Stream C - grants of up to $500,000 each
The outcome of the first grant round was announced on 25 November 2010, while the outcome of the second grant round was announced on 18 November 2011.

The Minister’s Media Release is available at:
