Medicines Australia joins forces with 15 health care organisations to highlight continuity of care
6 May 2020 - Right now, more than ever, it is essential that Australians maintain their health. Therefore, Medicines Australia is pleased to be one of the founding members of the Continuity of Care Collaboration.
The Continuity of Care Collaboration (CCC) is an Australian-first national communication collaboration of 15 Peak Bodies, Industry and Healthcare Organisations coming together to stress the importance for people to continue monitoring their health and maintaining their regular medical care.
The group has formed amid mounting concerns that Australians are not maintaining their regular doctor visits for existing chronic conditions and/or putting off seeing their doctor to get a test, investigation, or immunisation due to fears of contracting COVID-19 or burdening the health system.
