CHAPTER 5 MEDICAL STUDENT LOADING
5.1 PURPOSE
5.1 PURPOSE
5.1.1 The purpose of this chapter is to specify how the amount of medical student loading for Commonwealth supported places under paragraph 33-1(1)(b)(ii) of the Act is to be worked out.
5.5 MEDICAL STUDENT LOADING (section 33-1)
5.5 MEDICAL STUDENT LOADING (section 33-1)
5.5.1 The medical student loading provides funding for teaching hospital costs for a Commonwealth supported place in a course of study in medicine, completion of which would allow provisional registration as a medical practitioner by an authority of a State, a Territory or the Commonwealth.
5.5.5 Where the Minister allocates a number of Commonwealth supported places for courses of study in medicine under section 30-10 of the Act, the amount of medical student loading that will be paid for Commonwealth supported places is worked out in the following way.
5.10 CALCULATION OF THE LOADING
5.10 CALCULATION OF THE LOADING
5.10.1 The medical student loading in 2007 was $1,111 per Commonwealth supported medical student EFTSL for the allocated number of medical student places. The medical student loading for Commonwealth supported medical student EFTSL in later years is the medical student loading in 2007 indexed in accordance with Part 5-6 of the Act.
5.10.5 Student load is determined for the medical student loading by using the EFTSL of medical units of study in a course of study in medicine, completion of which would allow provisional registration as a medical practitioner by an authority of a State, a Territory or the Commonwealth (field of education codes (under the Australian Bureau of Statistics Australian Standard Classification of Education) 019901 - medical science and 060100 to 060199 - medical studies, excluding 060113 – Pathology). The allocation of medical student places for a particular year is equal to the most recent full year student load data reported by the provider through the HESC and cleared as final by the Department, plus any new places for a course of study in medicine not yet reported in the HESC and specifically allocated to the provider by the Australian Government.
