Negotiations with Wheatbelt GP network to establish the new $3 million GP Super Clinic in Northam are well advanced.

Wheatbelt GP Network has been identified as the preferred operator and the Department of Health and Ageing has been working with them to finalise their proposal.

“I’m pleased that negotiations are progressing well and I look forward to having more good news for Northam residents once the negotiations are completed,” Ms Roxon said.

“The Northam GP Super Clinic is going to make it easier for local families to see a GP closer to home.

“The Clinic intends to provide a range of services including GPs, nursing and allied health as well as after hours services.

“GP Super Clinics are delivering more health services closer to home for working families.”

The Gillard Government is investing $650 million to build more than 60 GP Super Clinics and invest in more than 400 infrastructure projects in GP clinics around the country. 33 GP Super Clinics are either open, delivering early services or under construction.
