Has anyone else heard the rumour of some major easing in the rules for patient registration in the last few days?
Seems the desperation for registration numbers is rising if what I am hearing is true.
Look forward to any feedback / news.

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.

David, you should see the DoHA desperados wandering the corridors of my hospital with their clipboards hoping the 'sheep' wandering by will respond to them. They have been here for about a month! Most stand with rabbit in the headlights stare hoping they will not get hit by anyone who has e-health knowledge regardless of its depth. My best experience was to watch the staffer enlisting a family of Nepalese immigrants with NO interpreter, to register for the PCEHR!
Come on big consulting, you can solve this problem!
At the rate of 20 minutes assistance/cajoling/educating for each Australian that is 8 million manual hours of work.
Surely you could work up a business case to save all that money with an online registration system .......
Oh hang on we already did that !!
Who was it that signed this project off again?
