MTAA supports call for future of private health summit
13 September 2021 - The Medical Technology Association of Australia (MTAA) today supported calls from AMA President, Dr Omar Khorshid, for a national summit on the future of the private healthcare sector.
“Private healthcare is a vital pillar of Australia’s health system, providing choice and access for patients and taking the pressure off the public hospital system,” MTAA CEO, Ian Burgess, said today.
“The MTAA shares the AMA’s concern about the sustainability of the current system given the ageing of our population and the drift away from private healthcare by young people.
