Here are the results of the poll.
Do You Believe The Budget Allocation Of $301.8M For Next Year Will Provide For Much More Than Just Keeping The System Going With Small Improvements Rather Than The ADHA Intended 'Re-platforming?
Yes - This Amount Will Fully Fund Re-Development 35% (31)
No - Significant Re-Development Looks To Be Off The Table For 2021/2022 62% (55)
I Have no Idea 3% (3)
Total votes: 89
A small majority do not think the proposed re-platforming is
actually funded and thus probably will not go ahead for now. (Note: A detailed review of the Budget Papers after release now suggests the funding is approximately $430M over 2 years - i.e.a good deal less.)
Any insights on the poll are welcome, as a comment, as usual!
A really great number of votes with total clarity on the outcome!
It must also have been an easy question as 3/89 readers were not sure how to respond.
Again, many, many thanks to all those who voted!

It would need explaining how this funding would not support a change. ADHA has all the customer parts in place as BAU, design, test, engagement and training and the all important communications. This is more than enough to provide the architecture for data, security, privacy and technology, would include the multitude of required standards, conformance etc.. the tender documents will call out the nature of the operating environment and support models needed for the platform is whatever type of cloud infrastructure. Data extraction transform and load. The latter not as complex these days as all major players invest heavily in migrating customers of the competition.
Raises questions - is there a real reluctance of major players to go near the MyHR? If so why?, is the underlying data model a barrier? is ADHA capable of overseeing such a project?
IMHO, the ADHA might understand the data in myhr, but they do not understand how that data can and will fir into the clinical processes of healthcare providers.
They have effectively handed that over to the providers of real eMR systems that sit on a healthcare provider's desk.
Unfortunately for ADHA myhr has been sold as a patient system and requires the active participation of patients and their healthcare providers.
Which means all that a patient can see is the raw data in myhr and nothing else. So why would a patient become engaged in the essential processes that are needed to make it work?
Furthermore, Australia has a healthcare system where GPs are businesses and they have a vested interest in not making it easy for a patient to transfer to another provider.
The big problem ADHA has is that it has a technology architecture (of sorts) but it doesn't have a business model into which myhr fits and delivers value to those who incur costs by using it.
TL;DR In spite of what it says about access to health data, ADHA has no idea how myhr can be of any net value to anyone in the healthcare community.
