A historic, geographic, cultural, and economic guide to Australian health care.
This is the first in a series of articles that will explore the health care systems of countries around the world. To begin the series, the President of the Royal Australian College of Medical Administrators describes the current status of the health of his country's people, its health care delivery system, and how it has responded to historic, geographic, cultural, and economic factors that characterize the growth and development of Australia.
