Archived Grant Opportunity View - GO6060

Quality Use of Pathology Program (QUPP) is a longstanding pathology quality program that was established in 1999. The program was established to support the pathology sector in the pursuit of continued improvements and to encourage innovation in pathology related practices, amongst requesters/referrers, providers and consumers of pathology services. Projects funded under QUPP also align with the strategic direction of the National Pathology Accreditation Scheme which forms the other part of the pathology quality program managed by the Australian Government.

This closed, non-competitive grant opportunity will invest in projects that contribute towards current key areas of focus for quality pathology that aim to improve the management, delivery and/or consumption of Medicare pathology services.

QUPP is a component program of the department’s Portfolio Budget Statement Program 2.1 Medical Benefits. The outcomes of the grant program will contribute to the Pathology Reform and Implementation Program. The objective of Program 2.1 is to deliver a modern, sustainable Medicare program that supports all Australians to access high quality and cost-effective professional services.
