(University of Melbourne)</figcaption> </figure> <p>Medicare is Australia's public health system, providing free public hospital care and subsidies for primary care. Medicare ensures that all Australians have access to a broad range of quality health services at little or no cost. The Australian Government provides significant financing for the health system, working closely with state and territory governments with responsibility for on-the-ground delivery of hospital services. A private health sector complements the public system.</p> <p>The non-Indigenous Australian population has a generally good health status with an average life expectancy at birth of 83 years (80 for men and 84 for women), one of the highest in the world. There are some groups with poor health status, and improving the life expectancy of Indigenous peoples is a national priority. Generally, the pattern of disease in Australia is similar to that of other developed countries.</p> <h2>The Royal Flying Doctor Service</h2> <p>One of Australia's best known and respected institutions is the Royal Flying Doctor Service. The Flying Doctor is a charity that operates a fleet of 66 planes and 48 vehicles from 23 bases around the country. Every day doctors, nurses and paramedics fly large distances to attend to patients or conduct clinics in small towns or on remote properties. Often they escort patients back to larger centres for hospital and medical treatment. The Royal Flying Doctor Service began in 1928 and every year has more than 290,000 patient contacts a year鈥攖he equivalent of one every two minutes.</p> <ul class="links"> <li><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190508000719/http://www.flyingdoctor.org.au/">www.flyingdoctor.org.au</a></li> <li><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190508000719/http://www.health.gov.au/">www.health.gov.au</a></li> </ul> </div>  <div id="WebPartZone6" class="webpartzone-vertical"> </div>  </div> </div> <div class="cols"> <div class="fullwidth-content col-12"> </div> </div> <div class="cols"> <div class="content-left col-4">  <div id="WebPartZone7" class="webpartzone-vertical"> </div>  </div> <div class="content-centre col-4">  <div id="WebPartZone8" class="webpartzone-vertical"> </div>  </div> <div class="content-right col-4">  <div id="WebPartZone9" class="webpartzone-vertical"> </div>  </div> </div> <div class="cols"> <div class="fullwidth-content col-12"> </div> </div> <div class="cols"> <div class="fullwidth-content col-12">  <div id="WebPartZone10" class="webpartzone-vertical"> </div>  <div class="contentarea"> </div>  <div id="WebPartZone11" class="webpartzone-vertical"> </div>  <div id="DfatPageLastUpdated"><span class="DfatMetaHeading">Last Updated: </span><span class="DfatMetaContent">25 August 2016</span></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="right-hand-panel"> <div class="column3"> <div class="right-nav col-3">  <div id="WebPartZone13" class="webpartzone-vertical">  <div class="webpart"> <figure class="photo expand-photo"> <img src="/web/20190508000719im_/https://dfat.gov.au/about-australia/society-culture/PublishingImages/120129_Images_Primary-evacuation-on-Mt-Ives-Station-2_RFDS-Central-Operations.jpg" alt="medical evacuation from Mount Ive Station, South Australia"/> <figcaption>A medical evacuation from Mount Ive Station, South Australia (Royal Flying Doctor Service)</figcaption> </figure> </div>  </div>  </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="quicklaunchbottom"> <div class="social-media-share"> <div class="wrap"> <div class="cols"> <div class="col-4"> <a class="top-link" href="#site-header">Top of page</a> </div> <div class="col-8 align-right"> <span id="ctl00_SPSecurityTrimmedControl2"> <div class="social-media-follow"> <strong>Share:</strong> <div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style "> <a class="addthis_button_preferred_1"></a> <a class="addthis_button_preferred_2"></a> <a class="addthis_button_preferred_3"></a> <a class="addthis_button_preferred_4"></a> <a class="addthis_button_compact"></a> <a class="addthis_counter addthis_bubble_style"></a> </div> <script type="text/javascript">var addthis_config = ;</script> <script type="text/javascript" src="//web.archive.org/web/20190508000719js_/https://s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=ra-51fb537968f100bd"></script> </div> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <footer> <h2>Footer</h2> <div id="footer-content" class="wrap cols"> <div data-collapse="mobile" data-collapse-default="close"> <button data-collapse="control" data-desktop="exclude">Site map</button> <div data-collapse="content"> <div class="cols"> <div class="col-3"> <section> <h3 class="prominent">Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade</h3> <p>R.G.
