What are Pri­or­i­ty Focus Areas (PFAs)?

Pri­or­i­ty Focus Areas (PFAs) are SA Health’s top pri­or­i­ties for improv­ing patient out­comes and the health­care sys­tem. Each PFA focus­es on a key theme and aims to deliv­er real improve­ments through time-lim­it­ed projects.

PFAs are guid­ed by Expert Advi­so­ry Groups (EAGs) made up of clin­i­cians, con­sumers, and oth­er sub­ject mat­ter experts. EAGs work togeth­er, fol­low­ing a clear work­plan, to guide and com­plete their projects.

For more infor­ma­tion about the PFAs see our FAQs about Pri­or­i­ty Focus Areas.
