Original Note:
The first iteration of Medicare was called Medibank, and it was introduced by the Whitlam government in 1975, early in its second term. Most of these changes were revoked by the incoming Hawke Labor government in 1984 with a name change from Medibank to Medicare. https://www.nma.gov.au/defining-moments/resources/medicare#:~:text=On%201%20February%201984%20the,Robert%20Hawke%2C%205%20March%201984%3A&text=With%20this%20historic%20initiative%2C%20all,and%20fairer%20health%20insurance%20system.
