The study is set in two Australian jurisdictions, NT and WA, which cover over 50% of Australia’s landmass (4 million km2). There are a total of 39 ACCHSs providing services in these two jurisdictions [18], of which 11 participated in this study. Participating ACCHSs provided PHC services to 30 communities (via local clinics or outreach services), and collectively serviced around 63,500 Aboriginal people between 2017 and 2019. The ACCHSs serviced regional, remote or very remote communities.
