AMA will lose PSR veto powers: govt
The power, which the AMA has never used, was dubbed 'anachronistic' by a review.
The AMA will lose its power to overrule Federal Government decisions on who leads PSR under draft laws introduced to Parliament today.
It follows a review of Medicare compliance led by health economist Dr Pradeep Philip (PhD), which described the veto power as “anachronistic” despite the AMA never using it.
