Economic Assessment of disability models of care in remote communities (Old ID 27272)

Role

Principal Investigator

Description

The project is a two-year study to conduct a health economic assessment comparing three service delivery models for allied health in Northern Australia. The models are fly-in fly-out service, established allied health professional services, and student-implemented services. The sites where the study will be conducted are Weipa, Katherine, Galiwinku and Nhulunbuy. The student implemented model (Nhulunbuy, Weipa) will be the only new service to be provided. Data on number of occasions of service and costs associated with the service delivery will be assessed across all models of care. The student-assisted model will allow for some additional data to be collected- quality of life and community engagement.
