flag Tasmania’s urgent care clinics and expanded pharmacist services have eased hospital pressure by treating over 117,000 patients since 2024.

flag Tasmania’s Medicare Urgent Care Clinics treated 1,586 patients in one week—exceeding emergency department volumes at Royal Hobart and Launceston General Hospitals—since launching, they’ve served over 117,000 patients with free, fast care for non-life-threatening conditions. flag Pharmacies have delivered 10,000 UTI treatments since March 2024, supported by government-backed training that expanded pharmacist roles to include prescribing contraception and treating common conditions. flag These initiatives, part of broader reforms, improve access to urgent care outside regular hours, reduce hospital strain, and free up GP appointments.
