Innovative Models of Care (IMOC) Program Grant

The Innovative Models of Care (IMOC) program aims to attract and keep health professionals in Australia’s regional, rural and remote communities.

IMOC also encourages:

  • health professionals working to their full scope of practice

  • multidisciplinary team-based models of care

  • different employment models for healthcare professionals

  • sharing of healthcare resources between small, connected communities.

The program will trail new multidisciplinary primary care models to identify more effective ways to delivery primary health care to people living outside major centres.

These models will also help to address distance and access issues, plus workforce shortages to delivery better health outcomes.
