Our Divisions and Medicare Locals



There are currently 108 divisions of general practice across Australia. Divisions are supported by State Based Organisations and the Australian General Practice Network. There are 8 state-based Division support organisations, one in each state and territory. The Australian General Practice Network is the national organisation of divisions, and has division representatives from each state on its board.

The NSW Divisions of General Practice Network works to enhance communication and integration between GPs and the wider health system, and improve the health of the community by supporting General Practice collaboration with other health professionals in the delivery of quality health care. The Divisions Program has been successful in contributing to General Practice participation in health planning and policy development, identifying and targeting population health priorities at a local level, improving the coordination of health services in the community and improving the quality of general practice.
