Furthermore, he will demonstrate that the 1996-2013 increase in the number of PBS drugs reduced the number of years of life lost before age 85 in 2019 by 359,026.
Frank will show that if the number of PBS drugs had not increased between 1994 and 2011, the number of hospital days in 2019 would have been 10.6 per cent higher than it actually was, and that the 1994-2011 increase in the number of PBS drugs reduced the number of hospital days in 2019 by A$2.48 million.

What policies could we prepare to quickly roll out to respond to a future crisis (even if we don’t yet know what that crisis will be)? Can we prepare for any differential effects of a crisis on each gender? What steps do we need to take (such as new types of data collection) in order to respond quickly and affordably to a crisis?
