Vlad Matic

Advisor

I am committed to working with clients and consumers to develop insightful solutions to managing complex health problems, whether at national policy level, or inside the consult room. I enjoy working with diverse groups of people and organisations in service planning and clinical redesign to effect change in service delivery to ensure equitable access to healthcare for all Australians. Aside from consultancy, I practice as a GP to maintain skills and to continue to understand the paradigms of GPs.

Vlad’s highly regarded skillset includes logical thinking, restructuring organisations, delivering economic efficiencies and benefits, and reviewing, designing, implementing, and evaluating models of care. His approach is human centred, with a unique ability to engage diverse groups of stakeholders, discerning the potential in people and organisations, and ensuring a strategic approach to overcoming the complexities of health landscapes.
