Defence Ministers � Minister for Defence Science and Personnel ? Top quality and timely health care for ADF

Minister for Defence Science and Personnel, Warren Snowdon set the record straight after incorrect statements were made by the Opposition about access to health care services for ADF personnel. Comments by the Shadow Defence Minister, Senator David Johnston that Defence members are not getting access to the best doctors or face overly convoluted processes to access health care under this contract are wrong. Defence has confirmedthat, under the newcontract withMedibank Health Solutions (MHS),ADF servicemen and women will continue to receive the highest quality of health care services. This was pointed out to Senator Ronaldson by officials at the Estimates Hearing. .
