Reckless political decisions destroy lives and undo decades of hard won progress. Irresponsible and ignorant leadership is not just a US problem. It is endemic and will continue to grow if we stay silent.

Increased bulk billing rebates will benefit patients and communities and relieve the doctors who work so hard to serve them. An important step but still needs broader Medicare reform. Glad to hear it is now a bipartisan commitment - so let's get on and do it š
