The strong hospital integration is a result of a past history of a community hospital initially run by General Practitioners with specialists as invited participants. An active GP unit maintains the strength of liaison and cooperation between GPs and the local healthcare network.

There are in excess of 70 GPs at both Frankston and Rosebud Hospitals on the staff. The major stakeholders include General Practitioners, local, regional and national governments on a federal and state level, local health service providers and the community.

The collaboration of the healthcare network, Monash University through Peninsula School of Computing and Information Technology and the Division was a first in establishing an electronic messaging system between GPs and the healthcare network.

The Division's high general practitioner participation rate is a result of strong visionary leadership by General Practitioners in the area.
