The role of the GP liaison program
The role of the GP liaison GPL Program is to promote an integrated, person-centred health care system providing quality care and better health outcomes for Victorians.
In particular, the GPL Program has a role in:
improving access to services
promoting continuity of care across health sectors and services (service integration)
building strong working relationships that promote sustainable collaboration and partnerships between services (service coordination and information exchange)
improving the quality of health care
contributing to a reorientation of the health system so that the mix of hospital and community-based services ensures care is provided in the most appropriate setting and minimises the need for acute care
optimising resource use and the efficiency of care across multiple providers.
