Yes, and that is the fundamental problem: GateKeeper was designed for
use in government departments, where there are clear hierarchical chains
of command and control and responsibility, at least on paper.

The Australian health care community is not a government department. GPs
 are not bureaucrats with a place in the Medicare organisation chart or
corporate structure. That's why the Gatekeeper model is inappropriate.
