This Session Really Deserves Some Publicity Given Where We Are With Digital Health Standards in Australia Right Now.

I spotted this a day or so ago.

Interoperability and Standards Update – Sunday 11th August – Melbourne

IHE Australia in partnership with HISA are offering our annual update on healthcare interoperability and standards on the weekend prior to the HIC conference.  If you live in Melbourne don’t miss it and if joining us in Melbourne for HIC this offers additional value. The day-long session will focus on electronic health communication and standardisation relevant to health providers, managers and the IT industry. This Pre-HIC workshop will be held on Sunday 11 August and will examine local and international eHealth experience and standards to move healthcare connectivity forward. While standards involved are somewhat “hidden” from view, knowing about them is crucial for purchasers and users of healthcare technology.

Medical devices:
  • Achieving connectivity in new and existing hospitals

I realise this is rather short notice from me – but this really looks worthwhile for those who are involved or want to learn more.
