Australia’s healthcare system won’t become sustainable by expanding hospitals alone. A/Prof Peter Subramaniam argues the biggest gains will come from investing earlier in prevention, primary care and genuinely coordinated, evidence-based team care.
A/Prof Subramaniam is a vascular surgeon, President of the Australian Medical Association (SA), and a passionate advocate for improving healthcare through collaboration across professions. Drawing on experience as both a surgeon and health policy leader, he offers a unique perspective on the challenges facing Australia’s healthcare system.
A/Prof Subramaniam explains why healthcare reform must be driven by data rather than ideology, why prevention deserves greater funding, and how better evaluation can avoid costly policy failures. He also explores the importance of trust, transparency and keeping patients – not politics or professional interests – at the centre of every healthcare decision.
