FIT FOR THE FUTURE?
An Australia–UK Exchange on the Future of Healthcare Funding
Australia and the UK have taken different approaches to healthcare funding and delivery. Australia's mixed public and private system relies on private health insurance, while the UK's NHS plays a central role.
How can we ensure our healthcare funding models remain sustainable while delivering better outcomes for the people and systems they serve?
Purpose of the Exchange
Hear from the UK's NHS on its vision for the future and Australia's Department of Health, Disability and Ageing on national healthcare priorities.
Together, we will explore pressures and priorities and what each system can learn from the other.
A New Perspective for Actuaries
FROM focusing on financial performance and funding sustainability measurement.
TO assessing the value funding models create for the healthcare system.
TOWARDS shaping measures, incentives and funding approaches that improve system-wide outcomes.
Why Join?
Challenge how we define and measure success, identify opportunities for better alignment between funding and healthcare outcomes, and explore the role actuaries can play in designing systems fit for the future.
Are we optimising Private Health Insurance (PHI) parameters, or the value it delivers? Let's open the aperture.
The session will run as a hybrid event, with in-person watch parties at the Bupa Melbourne office and the Institute in Sydney, and an online option for those joining remotely. The evening kicks off with 30 minutes of networking, followed by the session from 5.30 – 7pm.
