So that's one end of the picture.
We need to make sure our hospitals are
working efficiently.
We also need to make sure that our elderly patients are able to have access to aged care.
And so recently we did a deal with the aged care providers around supporting more weekend discharges of patients who are going into an aged care.
And that frees up beds for Monday, which is generally one of the busiest days in a hospital.
So there's no single simple solution.
Yeah, but there's no single simple solution, I guess what I'm saying.
There is many, many things that need to be done.
We are focusing on all of them.
The good news is the decline that we saw under the
government has stopped.
We're now seeing improvement year on year, quarter on quarter, and we're continuing to focus our resources on the front line where it matters to get people seen quicker.
Is it $33 billion?
Yeah, about that.
That's what we're putting a significant amount of money into.
Well, I understand it's about $17,000 per household.
We have an ageing population now, Mike.
It is one of the biggest cost pressures that we have as a government.
We will continue to invest in it.
