Funded Activity Summary

This study will use data linkage to examine questions about health service use by older Australians to manage chronic conditions such as diabetes. It will lead to a better understanding of the uptake of community based care initiatives and incentives through general practice, the factors that assist or impede uptake, and the impact of these on patient outcomes such as hospitalisation. The research findings will address important questions of interest to practitioners and policy advisors.
