Regions and Innovations
Three regions
TRANSFORM works across three regions in metropolitan Melbourne. Each region brings together consumers, clinicians, services and partners to identify local priorities and co-design solutions that improve how care works in practice.
While each region focuses on its own context, all contribute to a shared learning network, so that what works in one place can inform change across the system.
Across all regions, TRANSFORM follows the same approach:
Understand local needs: Using data, lived experience and patient journey mapping to identify where care breaks down
Co-design solutions: Bringing together consumers, clinicians and services to design practical improvements
Test and evaluate: Implementing innovations in real-world settings and assessing their impact
Share and scale: Spreading effective models across regions and informing broader system reform
All regions will have
Across all regions all regional integration collaboratives will have:
Consumer representation
Clinical academics
Project Officers
Local co-design and implementation members
Representative from the Primary Health Network, hospitals, community health services, general practice and other local stakeholders
What this work will deliver
Across all three regions, TRANSFORM will produce:
Patient journey maps: Showing how care is currently experienced and where it can be improved
Co-designed innovations: Practical solutions tailored to local needs and tested in real-world settings
Evidence on impact and value: Including experience, outcomes, efficiency and cost
Implementation blueprints: Supporting adoption and scale across other regions and systems
A connected system of learning
All three Regional Integration Collaboratives are linked through a shared learning network.
What works in one region informs the others, and the evidence generated across all three builds toward system-level reform.
