Victoria's government plans to invest an additional $1.5bn into hospitals, following the $8.8bn already allocated in the budget. This funding aims to improve care delivery and continue a record number of elective surgeries. The government has accepted 26 out of 27 recommendations proposed by the Expert Advisory Committee as part of its Health Services Plan, focusing on improving local healthcare and promoting stronger partnerships between hospitals. The new plan will see public health services grouped into 11 local networks, based on geography, with hospitals working together to deliver better care and support staff across each region.
