Victorian Health Priorities Framework 2012-2022: Metropolitan Health Plan

The Victorian Health Priorities Framework 2012-2022: Metropolitan Health Plan (the Health Plan) articulates the long-term planning and development priorities for Victoria's health services throughout the next decade.

The Health Plan focuses on Melbourne's health system and is supported by a companion document, the Metropolitan Health Plan – Technical Paper. Together, these two documents detail the priorities, directions and implementation actions that will transform Melbourne’s health system.

The Metropolitan Health Plan is only the first step of this statewide approach.

The Rural and Regional Health Plan 2012-2022 will be released later this year. It will provide a comprehensive plan for the statewide development of Victoria's rural and regional services.

The Health Capital and Resources Plan 2012-2022, also to be release later this year, will articulate a detailed plan for infrastructure and assets, workforce, ICT and health and medical research.

A series of open meetings and consultation sessions will held during May-June 2011 on the Metropolitan Health Plan 2012-2022 and the Metropolitan Health Plan – Technical Paper 2012-2022.
