Best Answer

Medibank (as opposed to Medicare) was introduced to Australia as one of the Whitlam government's final acts. The bills originating the scheme were introduced into parliament in mid 1973, but were thrice rejected by the Senate. They were passed (among others) in the historic joint sitting of parliament in 1974. The scheme was operational from 1 July 1975, but substantially dismantled under the Fraser government in early 1976.
