    Is Medicare on the brink of collapse? See how it can affect senior care soon

    Let's be clear, Medicare is an underinsurance scam. The legislated Monopoly insurer (Government via Medicare) is taking ever increasing Medicare levy money, yet NOT properly increasing what individuals are covered for. They cynically call it "universal insurance", but it is NOT universally...

    Say goodbye to GP appointments: See how pharmacies are changing healthcare consultations

    Remember, this is a cynical cost-shifting measure by the Poli's. With this scheme, they don't then have to pay for a doctor (doctors are in short supply because Poli's ignored the warnings of an impending (& yet worsening) undersupply), they pay the Phamacists less (& still some jurisdictions...

    Maximise your retirement funds with the latest superannuation reforms! Here's what we know so far

    I bet it won't be applied to the Politicians' retirement balances!

    Madonna once again stirs controversy after sharing AI-generated images with the Pope

    It's the rank hypocrisy which grates on me. If any famous 87 y/o man (let alone the Pope) used AI to create a publish a picture like this with Madonna, that man would be immediately (& rightly) criticised & "cancelled". But we are supposed to think it's OK the other way round?

    'This is a breach of trust': Hospitals under fire after being at the centre of a massive scandal

    A good old doctor bash by the left-wing Age? Just "reports", with no evidence put out there. Must be an election coming up - & need to silence/discredit those who can tell us what's really going on our underfunded hospitals.

    Groundbreaking Australian test promises early detection of deadly cancer

    I dislike reporting which includes the words "promises" & "hope for..." in the same sentence! At that price, let us know when they have some evidence one way or the other!

    Aussies face urgent health alert amidst sharp rise in cases of this disease ahead of Christmas

    I can't say for most states, but Victoria does NOT have accurate COVID stats. The only positives being recorded are those where formal hospital testing has occurred. There is no mechanism to report a positive RAT result. I know - my wife & I had COVID symptoms (plus +ve RAT) contracted from...

    Aussies face urgent health alert amidst sharp rise in cases of this disease ahead of Christmas

    Most wouldn't have died at that time except for having COVID! Most over-70's have medical conditions. Most aren't imminently dying from them. So most of the dead did in fact die because of COVID!

    New changes to cash payments aim to support vulnerable Australians better—find out why!

    Why would a small business require an exemption? I'd have thought they (& us) need protection from the card issuers cranking up the fees once cash is gone.

    Super fund faces criticism for delaying over 10,000 claims for months

    I am with HESTA, a large company focussing on the health sector, & they are hopeless to contact & deal with. The guts of the problem is that they think it's their money. And they don't want us taking it. I have had to retire due to a cognitive decline & I am at an age I can have access. My...

    Investigation launches after common medications allegedly link to life-threatening diseases

    The simple answer is that the benefits far outweigh the theoretical harms - & by a massive degree. We have a FDA which would remove them from chemist shelves if this was seriously an issue. Even if these harms were beyond doubt, because they are in fact so rare, most people would still choose...

    This indulgent treat is crowned as Australia's best gourmet doughnut!

    Came across them in Coffs Harbour by accident. Didn't realise how widespread they are becoming. They are very, very good!
