Providing transparent public hospital funding across Australia
How do you make scrutinised funding flows clear and accessible for the media and public?
Public Hospital Funding
Oxide worked with the National Health Funding Body to overhaul and unify their digital presence, creating a purposeful, accessible platform that connects the media, government, and the public to transparent hospital funding data and reporting pathways.
Purpose
The National Health Funding Body exists to uplift transparency in public hospital funding, helping Australians see how resources flow and supporting evidence-based decisions that improve health outcomes for all.
Challenge
The core challenge was to untangle and clarify two distinct organisational roles and reporting streams, integrating a large volume of reporting data into a single, trusted digital space - without losing nuance or accessibility for diverse, time-pressed users.
We delivered a unified public hospital funding website that makes detailed reporting accessible and trustworthy across Australia.
Highlights
- Combined two government sites into a single, clear platform, guiding users to relevant reports and data by need.
- Clarified organisational roles into a story format, making responsibilities simple to grasp.
- Supported the NHFB team to migrate content and datasets, establishing repeatable processes for future updates.
Clarity in public hospital funding
The new NHFB website makes it easy for users to understand how funding flows across Australia’s public hospitals. Clear pathways guide visitors to the latest reports, helping them quickly find relevant information and see how resources are distributed at national, state, and local levels.
Supporting confident decision-making
By presenting reports and data in a straightforward way, the platform uplifts trust in the information provided. People can rely on the accuracy of the data, through the reporting process with precision and clarity front of mind.
A foundation for transparent impact
The combined website is a trustworthy source of evidence. It enables transparent reporting and connects people to the data they need for meaningful public-good outcomes, embodying a commitment to purpose and progress.
Simplifying organisational roles
We broke down the responsibilities of both the NHFB and the Administrator into digestible stories. This approach helps visitors grasp how the two organisations connect and why their work matters, raising the profile of both without overwhelming the reader.
Smooth migration for future growth
We supported the NHFB team through every step of moving content and datasets to the new platform. By establishing repeatable processes, we set them up for ongoing success - making sure staff can maintain and update information confidently as needs evolve.
