Who is involved in ERM?

ERM is designed to be a collaborative approach between local Divisions of General Practice, The Phoenix Health Group, the Australian Division of General Practice and the Federal Department of Health and Ageing.  The Phoenix Health Group is a group of New Zealand General Practitioner Organisations (IPAs) who have implemented a similar program in that country and are prepared to work with other ERM partners to adapt knowledge and skills to the Australian setting.  The Phoenix Health Group has also indicated their confidence by offering some of the start-up finance for the project.

Initially the following eight Divisions of General practice , who have provided leadership in this area to the Division's Network, will undertake the program. 

Canning DGP	Central Bayside DGP	Central Coast DGP	GP North
GP Partners	Riverina DGP & PH	Hunter Urban DGP	Sth. Tasmania DGP

The program is designed to be scalable and able to be rolled out to all interested divisions in Australia.
All other Divisions will have the opportunity to be involved in this project when it has been demonstrated as successfully fulfilling its aims.
