What are the immediate impacts of Victoria's new health service network structure on healthcare access and resource allocation?

The Victorian government finalized its health service network restructuring, creating 12 networks serving at least 200,000 people each. This follows community pushback against initial proposals, with some regional areas now divided into sub-regions to better address local needs. The new networks, operational from July 1st, prioritize access, workforce, governance, and sustainability.
