PC Commissioner Alison Roberts tells Richard about the importance of care in our lives and the challenges with enhancing productivity in the care economy.
The Australian Productivity Commission (the PC), in its interim report ‘Delivering quality care more efficiently’, highlights that the care sector must be able to respond to our increasingly complex and overlapping care needs in a sustainable way. Alison and Richard discuss the report’s draft recommendations to increase the connections across the care economy, improving quality for consumers and helping Australia provide high-quality care more efficiently.
