1.3: Access Health
Implement access health. Other Information:
In 2007, the ACT Government launched access health—healthcare for all in the ACT. Access health sets the future for public
health services for the next three years. It sets targets, outlines areas of strategic investment and details actions in relation
to: • timely access to care • aged care • mental health • chronic disease management • early childhood and vulnerable families
• Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health. It covers the foundations of good health care, including the workforce, health
promotion, primary care, information systems and facilities. While planning and investing in future care, the ACT Government
will continue to implement the actions in access health, as well as maintaining a high level of investment in the public health
system.
