•       Health professionals will be attracted by lease options tailored to their needs.

•       BMC Limited is committed to attracting and retaining private GPs and other health services into this facility on a commercially viable basis

   

What happens if the money is not raised to secure the Lease?

• BMC Limited has no funds other than that donated by the community.

• The call for donations is to allow BMC Limited to guarantee lease costs for the first 2 years.

• Other operating funds will be obtained from leasing  rooms to GPs and other professionals

• If donations are not deemed sufficient to cover the lease for the first 2 years then the project will not go ahead and all donations will be returned to donors.

• If the lease is signed then all donated funds will become assets of the BMC limited and will not be returned to donors.

• The BMC Limited will expend donated funds to establish the BMC

• Donated funds expended to establish the BMC will NOT be returned to donors if the BMC fails to attract GP’s and other professionals to operate from the facility within 2 years

• No guarantee is given that the BMC will attract private GP’s

• Biloela will be competing against many other communities in similar situations.

• A strong marketing campaign will be undertaken as soon as the project is given the go ahead.

• BMC Limited is convinced that without this facility the probability of GPs or other health professionals relocating to Biloela to provide an adequate service to the Biloela community is HIGHLY UNLIKELY.

• BMC Limited is pleased to record that a number of GPs and other health professionals have expressed interest in an option to lease within the BMC facility when established.
