SA GPs call for patient-centred care as new abortion bill flagged
The Royal Australian College of GPs (RACGP) has expressed strong concern regarding a proposed abortion bill expected to be introduced to the South Australian Parliament in early June.

The Royal Australian College of GPs (RACGP) has cautioned against using findings from the NSW PATH-UTI evaluation to justify a broader expansion of pharmacy prescribing scope.
