Peter Thomas CavanaghGreat idea Tim. Good luck with your efforts at educating all of us at how we can improve our health system. Debate will always rage about the best way forward but at the moment it is important that we do not go backwards because of short term thinking motivated mainly by a desire to save money not by a desire to improve the system. I want to hear ideas for reform taking us into the future building on the internationally recognised successes of our Health System. The PBS is very expensive and far from perfect but has a very important role. There is plenty of room for progress and making good use of public money and not wasting it. Governments need to hear from people such as yourself who are in a position to write well researched articles informed by reflection on what you are learning from patients in clinical practice. All the best, Peter Cavanagh11y
