I don't get it. Policy decisions around Medicare reform seem to go like this.
1.Govt effectively reduces the Medicare rebate over decades, assuming that GPs are too compassionate to charge patients who can't pay. Most GPs pay the gap between the cost & rebate themselves
Bed block and busy EDs and ambulances are caused by lack of inpatient beds and lack of GPs, building bigger EDs and funding the occasional GP to open later are NOT solutions. Treat the disease not the symptoms
