Tasmania’s hospital system has “decayed” over the last year, according to the state’s leading medical body. The Tasmanian branch of the Australian Medical Association (AMA) says it now has “no confidence” in the way Tasmania’s health system is being been managed. AMA president Stuart Day said the Tasmanian Health Service (THS) boss Dr David Alcorn has not delivered what is needed. “We believe that the CEO doesn’t have the skill set or the ability to implement the vision,” he said. “There has been a dismantling of the past internal structures, without something being put in that place that is functional.” Dr Day said the failures had safety implications.
