2.11 Major Changes in Services Provided
Funding is provided to hospitals and Networks on the basis that the current range of services provided are continued. Before hospitals or Networks undertake a significant change in the range or scope of services the planning implications of such a move must be discussed and agreed with the Department. In rural areas the appropriate discussion should be held with the Regional Provider Manager or Acute Health Manager. In the metropolitan area discussions should be held with the Acute Health Program and the Region.
