Residents in our community have told me how important access to quality, affordable health care is to them.

Labor created Medicare, and I am proud to be part of a Labor Government committed to protecting and strengthen Medicare.

The Albanese Labor Government has established a network of 87 Medicare Urgent Care Clinics access the county which provide bulk billed, walk-in urgent care over extended hours, seven days a week. 

They have seen more than a million Australians - meaning they could avoid a trip to the emergency department, delivering them the care they need faster and taking pressure off busy hospitals.

Our community deserves the highest quality heath care - we need a Medicare Urgent Care Clinic on the Surf Coast.

Please support me in delivering this important service for our community.
