Australian Medical Association
The AMA can now confirm that all doctors who fall within one of the below cohorts are assured no-disadvantage because of the issues that arose during the early implementation of the statutory Bonded Medical Program (the Program) in 2020:
- those who thought they were opted in, had completed their obligations and had exited the Program;
- those who thought they had opted in and still need to complete their RoSO; and now also
- those who had expressed their interest to opt in via email and were awaiting a response.
The AMA is confident that our advocacy has been heard and acted on by the Department of Health about what is required to fix affected cohorts, improve transparency, and improve dialogue and responsiveness with affected participants.
