The Financial Accountability of Australia's Medicare System: A Generational Accounting Analysis
Article Abstract:
The pay-as-you-go publicly funded health care system in Australia follows cash-based accounting principles and this will also apply under the proposed reform which will follow accrual-based accounting principles. This paper criticizes the inequity appearing to result from using the accrual-based accounting principles.
