Tender Description

The PHN invites Expressions of Interest from eligible GP practices – either individual practices or partnerships (one or more practices; see eligibility requirements) – to establish, operate and deliver a CountryCare Connect Hub across the nominated underserviced Local Government Areas (LGAs) in the region.

This commissioned initiative aims to strengthen access to primary-based mental health care for people with severe and/or complex mental health needs, particularly in rural communities experiencing high levels of unmet need, workforce shortages, and fragmented service pathways.

Four hubs are to established across Western Downs, Goondiwindi, Lockyer Valley, and Somerset LGAs. There will be one CountryCare Connect Hub established in each of these regions.
