Diabetes cannot be solved with a bits and pieces approach to service delivery relying on consumers to glue the bits together. The experience of many consumers however is a highly fragmented system that is impossible to navigate.
Greater Metro South Brisbane Medicare Local are building an integrated service that offers service packages to consumers across the prevention, early intervention, basic and complex case and management services. Partnering with local councils, primary and secondary care providers and social services this is a comprehensive one stop shop to support the fight against diabetes in the greater south Brisbane area.
