The national Health Information Platform programme business case is due to be considered by Cabinet at the end of March.
The Ministry of Health is seeking a multi-year funding model with separate business cases developed to support four tranches of the programme.
The new platform is being developed to enable sharing of patient data and will “assemble a virtual electronic record on an ‘as required’ basis from multiple trusted sources, and provide access to data and services”, eHealthNews.nz previously reported.
"Each tranche will deliver access to health information iteratively starting with core data such as demographics, medications and immunisations,” Ministry group manager digital strategy and investment Darren Douglass says.
“The content of each tranche will be determined through sector engagement and service design and will be informed by prioritising the backlog of demand, understanding what will deliver value and applying learnings from previous tranches.”
If the business case is approved, implementation of tranche one is scheduled to begin in July 2020, with tranche four completed in December 2026.
Much more here:
This certainly sounds much more like it to me!
“The new platform is being developed to enable sharing of patient data and will “assemble a virtual electronic record on an ‘as required’ basis from multiple trusted sources, and provide access to data and services”.
We will never get our huge document pile to be ever 1/10 as useful as this will be if successfully developed and implemented.
Will be worth following progress closely I reckon!
David.
