    What is patient advocacy?

    At the present moment QLD and NSW are the only states that have these programs. Other states in Australia you would need to speak with a Patient Advocate in that hospital.

    In Queensland there is Ryans Rule

    In NSW there is Reach which is proposed to be renamed recently Joes Rule
