More than half a billion dollars in foreshadowed health cuts have been axed after a furious campaign by hospital boards.
Treasurer Cameron Dick has confirmed Queensland Health will not be subjected to a further "efficiency dividend", but would still need to make $1 billion in savings already slated last year.
The announcement, on the eve of Tuesday's state budget, follows red-hot anger from hospital boards that had refused to sign crucial service agreements and warned they would have to consider "draconian measures" and cut community services to make requested savings.
