Help develop guidance on elective procedures through the Best Care Advisory Group

Applications are now closed

We are calling on clinicians and consumers to help us develop guidance on non-urgent, elective surgery that will better inform patient choices.

Some non-urgent elective procedures only offer benefits to patients under very specific circumstances.

So earlier this year, we released Best Care guidance on 26 elective surgeries, providing evidence-based information on elective procedures and potential alternatives.

We are adding more procedures to that list, and are looking for clinicians and consumers to help us finalise procedures, identify indications and develop guidance.

Join our Best Care Advisory Group

We are inviting expressions of interest from:

• clinicians from specialist surgical, nursing, allied health and primary care backgrounds
• consumers with lived experience of elective procedures (as a patient or carer) in a Victorian public hospital.

How to apply
