Summary |
The 2009 WA Health Four Hour Rule Program evolved into the National Emergency Access Target (NEAT). Following the expiry of the Commonwealth National Partnership Agreement on Improving Public Hospital Services in 2015, WA Health established the Western Australia Emergency Access Target (WEAT) in January 2016 to continue to drive local improvement in patient access to emergency services. This policy is designed to support regions by outlining a number of measures identified as effective in supporting 90 per cent.
