Australian Health Information Technology

This blog is totally independent, unpaid and has only three major objectives.
The first is to inform readers of news and happenings in the e-Health domain, both here in Australia and world-wide.
The second is to provide commentary on e-Health in Australia and to foster improvement where I can.
The third is to encourage discussion of the matters raised in the blog so hopefully readers can get a balanced view of what is really happening and what successes are being achieved.

Excellent article...I was not aware of how easy it can be to improve the care....simply throwing money at more international doctors and nursing staff doesnt deal with the issue - it is simply perpetuating the current increase in costs associated with an ageing and unhealthy population. Wouldnt it be brilliant if the govt rolled out the 60 percent solution early instead of attempting the i-health solution late....enjoyed this article...good find.

A population yearning for information ...needs this more than ever.
