Great QLD News

APMA was extremely pleased at the recent Government announcement of $39.1 million over four years for operational funding for a persistent pain service network across Queensland. This funding will enable a ‘hub and spoke’ network which will dramatically improve access for complex cases and allow most persistent pain to be managed in the community via primary care providers in partnership with allied health and consumer health promotion organisations.

APMA strongly supports this commitment to the principles contained in the recently developed National Pain Strategy, and looks forward to being able to complement this initiative via our help-line service, community education and other community-based self-management measures. We look forward to other State Governments following suit in the near future.  http://www.cabinet.qld.gov.au/MMS/StatementDisplaySingle.aspx?id=70083
