Wingham CWA News: My Health Record

·         Jac Hyde

Wingham CWA members at a CWA Awareness Week meeting. Photo submitted.
Awareness Week, September 1-9 was CWA’s annual, show what we  achieve, advertising period.
This year, rural health was our focus and Wingham Branch decided to address the questions being asked about My Health Record.
Alicia Southwell, digital health project officer, New England and Central Coast, addressed a very well attended meeting on September 6.
Tea and scones were enjoyed by all present.
We have until November to make our decision. 
If we do not make contact with the Department our Health Record  will automatically be included in the system. 
If we have any objection to our record being made available to all Health sections we must record a dissent.  
MyHealthRecord.gov.au or Help Line 1800 723 471.

While the photo reveals really intense engagement with the #myHR I really am not sure what to make of this sentence.
“If we have any objection to our record being made available to all Health sections we must record a dissent.”
In advance my apologies to the good citizens of Wingham for the unseemly photo, but am envious of the CWA scones!
David.

Would it be possible to upload the Wingham CWA scone recipe to the My Health Record? Its a novel use case, but a very useful one.

11:05 PM, agree, especially useful for those with complex baking needs or tend to visit multiple grocers. Rural and remote people might be able to order flour online and track the delivery from farm to door. The government could then for our own safety track the unlawful and tax avoiding distribution of bakers dozens and recoup the lost GST ensuring the scheme save the budge 1.2 billion over forward estimates.
