4 Background: The north of Australia has unique health issues which are impacted by issues relating to access to health services, the health disparity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, maintaining a sustainable workforce and management of tropical diseases. The north of Australia also provides a range of opportunities relating to delivery of international healthcare and health professional education and training due to proximity to Asia and its increasing demand for high quality health professional training programs, led in part by a policy commitment via APEC to universal coverage. In 2012, the Director-Generals of Health in South Australia, Queensland, Western Australia and Health Chief Executive in the Northern Territory met to consider priorities to progress a range of remote health initiatives in Northern Australia. Ten priorities were identified and work is underway to progress many of these priorities within what is known as the Remote Health Project. In late 2012, the Greater Northern Australia Regional Training Network (GNARTN) was formed by the Director-Generals for Health in Queensland and Western Australia, and the Chief Executive of the Northern Territory, to focus on driving collaboration to enhance clinical education and training opportunities across the three jurisdictions. GNARTN is funded collaboratively by the partner jurisdictions using Regional Training Network funding provided by Health Workforce Australia. This has provided a model to facilitate co-investment on issues of common concern and has supported effective cross jurisdictional communication and collaboration. A federal Joint Select Committee is currently developing a white paper on the future development of northern Australia. GNARTN and the Remote Health Project have sought to inform the committee s considerations, suggesting that with the proposed population increased in northern Australia over the next 30 years, and the growing demand for health professional education and training, there is need to consider a high level operational mechanism embedded within northern Australia which can continue to build upon the outcomes that have been achieved to date.
5 Purpose of the Northern Australia Health Roundtable: To consider the health and workforce related issues of northern Australia, and explore opportunities to better collaborate, communicate and share health innovation across the jurisdictional boundaries; To build upon current approaches to increase inter-jurisdictional collaboration on key workforce and health system issues/ initiatives; To work towards an agreement to host a Northern Australia Ministers of Health Meeting in late 2014; and To inform the Joint Select Committee on Northern Australia on practical solutions to significantly improve health services and health care provision through inter jurisdictional collaboration across the jurisdictional boundaries.
6 Outcomes from the Northern Australia Health Roundtable: A Northern Australia Health Roundtable (NAHRT) was held on the 8th of May 2014 in Darwin to discuss opportunities to better collaborate, communicate and share health innovation across the jurisdictional boundaries. The delegates of the Northern Australia Health Roundtable supported the position that there was value in continuing dialogue and collaboration between Western Australia, Queensland, Northern Territory and the Commonwealth. It is proposed that a second meeting of the Northern Australia Health Roundtable be held in late 2014, pending support from the Director Generals of Queensland and Western Australia, and the Chief Executive of the Northern Territory Department of Health. Four priority areas identified by the Northern Australia Health Roundtable delegates that could benefit from an integrated northern Australia collaborative approach include: Tropical Australian Centre for Disease Control; Northern Australia Telehealth Network; Resourcing models to meet the northern Australia health service needs Workforce innovation and reform strategies with a focus on developing a northern Australia generalist health professional. There was agreement that in northern Australia there are many examples of innovative service delivery and workforce solutions that have evolved locally and have potential benefit to be shared across the northern Australia region. It was also acknowledged that there are opportunities to learn from, to invest in, and generalise these models to meet local service requirements. There was strong support for the work that GNARTN has been undertaking over the past 18 months. While it was recognized that three of the four priority areas identified by the delegates currently sit outside of the scope of GNARTN funding and terms of reference, the work of GNARTN in enabling and enhancing clinical placement capacity in northern Australia, as a mechanism to facilitate shared development of and innovative approaches to clinical training, workforce reform, and models of care, is significant and unprecedented. Agreement was reached by the delegates of the Northern Australia Health Roundtable that advice would be sought from the Director Generals and Chief Executive of the jurisdictional health departments as to a way forward. Pending agreement from the Director Generals and Chief Executives of the health departments, a second meeting of the Northern Australia Health Roundtable will be held in late 2014.
7 Overview of 4 Proposed Initiatives (conceptual 1 ): Tropical Australian Centre for Disease Control Strengthen surveillance and responsiveness to current and emerging public health issues; building upon existing infrastructure, networks and intellectual capacity to respond to emerging public health issues in northern Australia. Northern Australia Telehealth Network An integrated telehealth network, utilising new technologies (PCEHR, apps, telehealth health online MIMS, PCCM and CARPA) to deliver health care supported by innovative workforce and clinical service models, professional support and education, clinical supervision and support, to regional, rural and remote health professionals. Resourcing models to meet the northern Australia health service needs Explore the opportunity to develop new funding and governance models across northern Australia to meet the changing health needs of the northern communities. Workforce innovation and reform strategies focus on developing a northern Australia generalist health professional Support the investment made by GNARTN to continue to focus on northern Australia health professional workforce training and support to promote specialist generalist health professionals across all health disciplines, including clinical training, model of care, and clinical governance. 1 The concepts described below are informed by the discussion of the delegates. Further development and scoping would be required prior to the second Northern Australia Health Roundtable meeting.
