How does the way the WA Health system is managed impact consumers, carers and the community?
The Health Services Act 2016 introduced a new governance structure (how the health system is run and managed) to the WA Health system. The East, North, South, Country and Child and Adolescent Health Services (HSPs) as well as PathWest were created. There is now an Independent Review underway into that governance structure.

- consumer involvement
- patient experience
- emergency management
- prevention and care in the community
We also used that to inform our submission.
