Conclusions: Since the early 2000s, when there was impetus for the development of public-private psychiatric shared-care models as part of a previous National Mental Health Strategy, there has been surprisingly little research and policy development. Given an apparent exodus of psychiatrists to private practice due to current challenges facing the public health sector, it is timely to reconsider models of private and public sector shared-care that may improve the quality of public mental healthcare.application/pdfen-AU© The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists 2021Australian scholarshipglobal environmentalpoliticsAsia PacificenvironmentAnthropocene202110.1177/103985622110528982022-05-08
