The Australasian Institute of Digital Health (AIDH) Board is pleased to advise that Anja Nikolic will soon be joining the Institute as CEO.

Anja has had an extensive career in membership organisations, working across Business Development, Conference/Events Management, Product, Member Services and Communications. She is currently the Chief Executive Officer at the Australian Physiotherapy Association (APA); a national organisation with over 30,000 members.

Anja is excited to take on the opportunity to grow the influence and impact of the AIDH, to support the digital capabilities of the healthcare workforce and achieve our vision of Healthier Lives, Digitally Enabled. Anja will commence at AIDH on 25 March 2024.

The Board would like to thank Mark Nevin FAIDH for his term as Interim CEO since July 2023, through to the time Anja commences in March. Mark has worked tirelessly to lead the AIDH team, support delivery of quality programs, and improve maturity in internal governance and controls. We look forward to continuing to work with Mark in his capacity as a Fellow of the Institute and wish him all the best for the future.

----- End Release

I do really feel it would be nice to have some Digital Health expertise – but there you go!

I guess the AIDH is mainly a conference organiser these days – for better or worse!

  1. I don't suppose that the AIDH had to appoint a conference organiser as CEO because they could not find anyone with experience in Health or Information Systems to take on the role?

    I wouldn't be surprised if people with experience in Health or Information Systems see no value in the organisation.

    Just guessing.

  2. Everyone is shifting across to aged care. That is where all the money and home comforts are these days - unless your an elderly citizen living through your twilight years then there is bugger all for you.
