The Royal Australasian College of Medical Administrators (RACMA) enables the delivery of high quality, safe health services and systems for the community by educating, training, and promoting the skills, knowledge, and professional attitudes of specialist medical leaders in health care settings and health related organisations.
The College does this by:
- establishing and maintaining standards in medical leadership and management education
- promoting health equity within the communities we serve, acknowledging the dignity and special needs of diverse groups within the community and including recognition of the commitment to reconciliation for Indigenous People of Australia and Aotearoa/New Zealand and the articles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi for Māori of Aotearoa/New Zealand
- developing and delivering education, continuing professional development and research programs to promote and advance the principles and practice of medical leadership and management and providing opportunities to bring Members together for their common benefit
- advocating as the peak body on medical leadership and management issues and related topics, and providing expert advice on high quality, effective and safe health care, services, and systems for the community
- promoting cooperation and collaboration with organisations with objectives similar to those of the College.
