By now, all general practices in South Western Sydney should have received an email from SWSPHN, with Minister for Health and Aged Care, Mark Butler’s invitation to participate in the Australian Government’s $220 million Strengthening Medicare – General Practice Grants Program.
The program aims to help general practices and eligible Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations (ACCHOs) to expand patient access and improve general practice services.
A one-off grant based on practice size and accreditation status will be available to each participating general practice and ACCHO.
This funding can be used in innovation, training, equipment, and minor capital works.
Practices are eligible for grants of either $25,000, $35,000 or $50,000.
Please check the email inbox listed as your practice’s main email for the Application and Grant Agreement. If you did not receive the email, contact enquiries@swsphn.com.au
Please see the Quick Reference Guide below for more details, including eligibility and requirements.
The authorised practice representative can then complete and return the Application and Grant Agreement to SWSPHN at enquiries@swsphn.com.au by 5pm on Thursday, 15 June 2023.
