Health Minister Greg Hunt has unveiled Australia's National Health plan which he hopes will make the nation's health system the best in the world.


Health Minister Greg Hunt has revealed Australia's National Health Plan, with the blueprint outlining funding and programs until 2030.

While Australia is ranked number one in the world when it comes to clinical outcomes, Mr Hunt is aiming higher.

Mr Hunt breaks down Australia's health system into four main pillars which the national plan will address.

Pillar one is primary healthcare, an area which Mr Hunt says Australia is doing well in but can further improve.

The coalition will be focusing on ensuring Australia's medicare system is adequately funded, adding additional drugs to the pharmaceuticals benefit scheme and improving regional health care.
