My question is to Senator Colbeck, the Minister representing the Minister for Health and Aged Care, and it relates to the cost of health care in Australia. Minister, when the Medical Costs Finder website was launched two years ago, it was found that, for some procedures, patients in some states were paying out-of-pocket costs which were up to 40 times more than those paid by patients in other states. Fee transparency was supposed to alleviate this problem. Can you tell me whether the Medical Costs Finder website has helped a single patient by reducing their out-of-pocket costs?
