Well it seems we have a Government formed by 76 to 74 votes.
It is also seems the National Broadband Network was a key decider, although I heard no specific mention on e-Health in the "Decision Press Conference".
It will be fascinating to see what this new paradigm actually results in. I certainly hope we get much increased transparency and especially in regard to e-Health.
It is interesting to note the the Independents are only offering quite limited guarantees and that every Bill will be fully debated and discussed! I imagine any legislation to implement the Personally Controlled EHR will certainly now get very careful scrutiny.
We are in for a very interesting period I suspect.

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.
