Submission to Community Affairs Committee Inquiry into the Extent in Income Inequality in Australia
Catholic Health Australia has used its submission to a Senate Inquiry into income inequality in Australia to highlight the need for people from different socioeconomic groups to be able to access similar levels of health care. In its submission, CHA recommended that "particular attention be given to ensuring that any barriers in access in particular to health care for socioeconomically disadvantaged Australians are continuously monitored and removed such that socioeconomically disadvantaged Australians enjoy the same health care access, and health care outcomes, as the most advantaged Australians".
