Looks Like The ADHA Board Needs A Bit Of A Push Along Again!

Dateline 21-April-2018.

Here is what we see....

Australian Digital Health Agency Board

Either they have nodded off or they have decided not to provide the usual pathetic level of transparency in a halfway timely fashion. Wonder which it is? Over 4.5 months since the last set of papers.

Wonder why? Surely they have done more than a few press releases and the usual swanning around in almost 5 months?

It is quite clear the only thing to be open and transparent is people’s personal information. A quick scan of AusTender is interesting. Horizon Communications seems to be benefiting quite well. I certainly don’t recall RFTs for that work

2:31 PM, doing a search for the Australians digital Health Agency on AusTender, all it tells me is the ADHA seems to somehow bypass this government requirement. Horizon comes up as preventative care, just a search error.

The lack of transparency is evident and does play somewhat into the rumours there are some less than proper going ons at ADHA and conflicts of interest are rife

Also overdue - the required 2017 Calendar Year report on contracts under the Senate Order.... they must be published with two months of the end of the financial and calendar years. So there is no transparency for the six months from July to Dec 2017 (assuming all the first half-year contracts were included in the first report)

Since January !, ADHA has been publishing (some? all?) contract results on AusTender, but it is not posting its Approaches to Market there. Instead they are using the govt's new beta Digital Marketplace....

Good pickup 3:05. That should give the senate committee something to discuss with ADHA. Seems they struggle handling public funds and they are about to be given every Australians private health information regardless of the preference. Looks like someone is struggling to run a small time Agency.
