My question is to the Minister for Health and Aged Care. According to the National Rural Health Alliance, regional Australians receive $848 less per year in health spend than metropolitan Australians do—an expenditure gap of $6.55 billion. How will the government urgently address this alarming healthcare spending inequity?
