Grattan Institute

Grattan Institute is an independent, non-partisan public policy think tank based in Melbourne, Australia. Established in 2008, the institute focuses on developing high-quality, evidence-based policy recommendations for the Australian government and the public. While it covers various sectors, its Health Program is a core pillar, focusing on improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the Australian healthcare system. The institute's research in health includes hospital funding, primary care reform, mental health services, and pharmaceutical pricing strategies. It does not engage in drug discovery or clinical development but rather influences the regulatory and economic environment of the life sciences sector. Grattan's reports are widely cited by policymakers and media, making it a significant influencer in Australian health and social policy.
