Morning Mail: surge in bulk-billing by GPs; Deloitte under pressure over error-filled WA report; and anger over Neighbours’ AI recut
New data shows almost two-thirds of Australians are now bulk-billed for all their GP care, after government financial incentives for doctors and practices. The WA government is seeking its money back from consultancy Deloitte after a report was found to contain errors, including AI-generated references and cost discrepancies. The Quilpie council is giving away 62 residential lots and a $20,000 grant to encourage home building. Former Neighbours star Donna Freedman's character features in an AI-recut microdrama designed for phones, which has sparked debate.
