About the Mapping Project
RANZCOG developed the O&G Map with funding from the Australian Department of Health and Aged Care, as a tool for exploring O&G health services. The project is part of a wider initiative entitled: Mapping Maternal Health and Gynaecological Services in Rural, Regional and Remote Australia: Uptake, Barriers and Recommendations (or the Mapping Project for short).
The Mapping Project aimed to:
map the geographic distribution of O&G services, the O&G workforce and levels of service in rural, regional and remote Australia
identify service and workforce gaps, and barriers to effective service delivery
The O&G Map is anticipated to support future service and workforce planning, and to facilitate steps towards achieving equitable access for all women, regardless of where they live.
