Commonwealth treasurer, Commonwealth state and territory health ministers along with Portfolio agencies such as AIHW, IHPA and ACSQHC, work together in a mutually beneficial relationship with the Administrator of the National Health Funding Pool and National Health Funding Body. As does the Jurisdictional Advisory Committee, Executive Committee and Audit Committee.
