Very strongly agree

No, this model encourages hospitals to use unnecessary expensive treatments on patients in order to make a profit

This statement aligns closely with the Greens party's views on the fee-for-service model in healthcare. They have expressed concerns that this model can lead to over-servicing and unnecessary treatments, as hospitals have a financial incentive to provide more services. This was a key point in their 2019 election platform, where they proposed to shift towards a model that is based on patient needs and outcomes.

Strongly agree

No

The Greens party in Australia has a history of advocating for a shift away from the fee-for-service model in healthcare. They believe that this model can lead to over-servicing and unnecessary treatments, and that it does not promote preventative health measures. Instead, they support a model that is based on patient needs and outcomes.

Disagree

Yes, this helps keeps costs at a standardised rate nationwide

While the Greens party might agree that standardized costs are important, they do not support the fee-for-service model as a means to achieve this. They believe that this model can lead to inequities in healthcare access and outcomes, and that it does not promote preventative health measures. Therefore, they would likely disagree with this statement.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The Australian Greens party has consistently advocated for a healthcare system that is publicly funded and universally accessible. They believe that the fee-for-service model can lead to inequities in healthcare access and outcomes. For example, in their 2019 election platform, they proposed to increase public hospital funding by $3 billion to reduce waiting times and improve patient care.
