AusHealthIT Poll Number 485 – Results – 28th July, 2019.

Here are the results of the poll.

Has The ADHA Done Enough To Support Those With Limited Digital Literacy Access And Use Digital Health Systems And Tools?

Yes 0% (0)

No 98% (98)

I Have No Idea 2% (2)

Total votes: 100

Well that was pretty clear. The overwhelming view is that the ADHA is not doing enough.

Any insights on the poll welcome as a comment, as usual.

A great turn out of votes.

It must have been a pretty easy question as only 2/100 readers were not sure what an appropriate answer was.

Again, many, many thanks to all those that voted!

David.

The politicians don't want to know.

They are keeping their distance and saying nothing hoping MyHR will have a quiet demise.

Which politicians have commented on MyHR since 1 March and who were they?

@1:03 PM They are probably hoping the National Audit Office Report will help them kill-off the project. There will be some short term embarrassment but a bit of spin can easily fix that.

And the 'blame'can easily be slotted away to past Health Ministers and Health Department Secretaries from the last decade. I seem to recall there were plenty of them from both sides of politics.

You say "The overwhelming view is that the ADHA is not doing enough"!

It sounds to me like you want them to do more. Excuse the pun. I've a
had the impression you have been agitating to get them closed down. Which is it? You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Clearly my most fervent wish is that then myHR and all the attendant nonsense is replaced by something actually workable, safe and useful.

But no matter what happens more Digital Health Literacy can't be a bad thing - with or without the ADHA - see today's blog on their abject failure to date.

Which, added to the uselessness of My Health Record is yet another reason to close ADHA down. They are a danger to society.

Having not succeeded in doing enough is not reason to continue to plot ahead. They clearly take the bouncing balls approach. Sadly nothing positive has stuck. The CEO might have seemed a ‘best of a bad bunch’ but he like many thoughtless leaders believe digital transformation is a union of people and technology.
