Listen to the full interview from 4BC Drive:
When it comes to fixing Australia's healthcare system, the numbers tell a stark story. Our founder Graeme Haycroft recently broke it down on 4BC Drive: while world-class health systems operate with one administrator for every ten nurses, our hospitals are struggling with one bureaucrat for every two nurses.
"Most of these bureaucrats never even see a patient," Graeme explained during the interview. "They're in Brisbane, writing emails back and forth to people in the hospitals."
The solution? Graeme outlined our vision for bringing back local hospital boards - putting healthcare decisions back in community hands. This shift could not only streamline operations but potentially free up enough funding to give our hardworking nurses a 25% pay increase.
