Govt concedes COVIDSafe app 'rarely used' in overdue report
By Justin Hendry on Jul 30, 2021 7:00AM
Puts it down to low transmission rates and strong manual tracing.
The federal government has finally released its first official report into the COVIDSafe app, conceding the app is "rarely" used but attributing that to low community transmission rates and strong manual contact tracing.
The overdue report comes a week after the Department of Health was forced to release a draft evaluation on the app's operation and effectiveness following a freedom of information request.
It covers two six-month reporting periods instead of the single six-month period outlined in legislation governing COVIDSafe, which also requires that the department provide the report to parliament within 15 sitting days.
The report, published this week, reveals that 779 users who tested positive to Covid-19 consented to having data from the app uploaded to the national COVIDSafe data store between 26 April 2020 and 15 May 2021.

Grace period ending for active ingredient prescribing regime
From Sunday, scripts that fail to include the list of active ingredients cannot be dispensed by the pharmacist unless the doctor can be contacted to correct it
29th July 2021
By Kemal Atlay
PBS prescriptions without the generic names listed will not be dispensed from this Sunday unless pharmacists can contact the doctor to have the script corrected.
Under regulations that came into effect in February, scripts can still mention a brand name but the active ingredients of most PBS-listed medicines must be included.
The Federal Government claims the changes will save it $336 million over five years by increasing uptake of generics and reducing prescribing errors.
A six-month grace period was introduced to allow pharmacists to dispense a brand-name-only script even if they were unable to contact the original prescriber to have the generic ingredient details added.
However, it ends on 1 August.

RACGP calls for leniency over GP telehealth breaches
Dr Karen Price says the government's 'overreaching' crackdown is targeting those acting in good faith
28th July 2021
The RACGP says Medicare needs to change the way it's auditing GPs it suspects of breaching telehealth's 'existing-relationship' rule, claiming doctors are being targeted for technicalities.
Three months ago, the federal Department of Health sent letters to 430 GPs asking them to explain their MBS claims for telehealth.
The college responded by pushing for leniency, pointing to the widespread confusion about the rule, which says patients must have attended the practice face to face at least once in the previous 12 months.
However, the college says a number of GPs have now been sent follow-up letters demanding repayments, although this has not been confirmed by the department.
According to media reports, they include one GP who was told by the department to repay claims for telehealth items after she treated a suicidal adolescent over a period of a few weeks.

RACGP criticises DoH telehealth compliance approach
President Dr Karen Price has written an open letter to Federal Health Secretary Professor Brendan Murphy, saying GPs feel ‘let down’.
28 Jul 2021
The
letter states that the college is ‘disappointed’ that the Federal
Department of Health (DoH) did not heed advice regarding compliance letters sent
to hundreds of GPs who were caught out by rules concerning MBS claiming for
telehealth consultations.
The DoH had initially identified thousands of GPs potentially in breach of the
rules, but reduced the scope of its compliance activity following RACGP
advocacy that highlighted the difficulty of navigating complex compliance
requirements while caring for patients during a pandemic.
However, according to the letter, increasingly frustrated GPs have not only
still received compliance letters but demands for payment from the DoH.
‘After a challenging year of COVID outbreaks, GPs feel let down that their best
efforts to provide care to all Australians, in a complex and changing pandemic,
have not been taken into consideration by the department,’ RACGP President Dr
Karen Price wrote.

Govt auditing 23 GPs over telehealth breaches
It comes after the health department sent ‘please explain’ letters to 434 GPs back in April
30th July 2021
Some 23 GPs are being audited after each claimed more than 300 “potentially incorrect” MBS telehealth consults, the federal Department of Health says.
The move comes after officials sent ‘please explain’ letters to 430 doctors back in April asking them to review their billing.
They were suspected of breaching telehealth’s existing-relationship rule, where a patient must have attended the practice in person in the past 12 months.
But the RACGP has been campaigning for leniency because of the widespread confusion over the rule.

The radiotherapy machine that rotates you!
Cancer Clinical Radiology Technology
Radiotherapy machines do not come in travel-light sizes, I realise, on seeing the prototype Nano-X machine, the brainchild of the University of Sydney’s ACRF Image X Institute.
But size can be misleading. What’s different about this machine is its radiation beam. It remains fixed while the patient spins, the opposite of what a LINAC machine does. The Nano-X’s beam travels from its bulbous shower-head-looking top directly to the floor, a redesign motivated by affordability.
“We think it will reduce costs of owning a machine by two-thirds,” says Dr Mark Gardner, research associate at the ACRF.
It has huge potential. One in two cancer patients worldwide need radiotherapy but less than a third get access because of the prohibitive expense of a LINAC. The Nano-X could be the answer cancer communities in the developing world have been waiting for.
You do not need as big a room to house it, and you do not need to shield the room against radiation bouncing around from a rotating beam. The institute has also designed operating software that lowers the staff-to-patient ratio required.

Google developing digital COVID card
Would you trust the tech giant with your health info?
By Rosalyn Page on Jul 27 2021 10:31 AM
As the world opens up and people once again move around freely, COVID passes are looking increasingly likely to enable cross-border travel and a return to other freedoms.
Soon Android users could choose to store COVID-19 vaccination and test results on their phones in the form of a COVID card after Google updated its Passes API to allow healthcare organisations, government agencies and public health authorities to create a digital version of vaccination or test information.
“Once a user stores the digital version of the COVID card to their device, they will be able to access it via a shortcut on their device home screen, even when they are offline or in areas that have weak internet service,” Google said in making the announcement.
Kicking off in the United States, the digital COVID-19 card rollout will then move to other countries and Android devices will need to be running Android 5 or later, giving it a potentially wide user base that should include Australia.

Why healthcare security needs urgent care
CyberArk
Software Inc.
By Thomas Fikentscher, Regional Director ANZ, CyberArk
Wednesday, 28 July, 2021
Increased ransomware incidents in health care require stringent protection of critical systems and data.
Australia’s healthcare sector has been the target of increased cybersecurity incidents since COVID-19 forced digital care into the spotlight. Sensitive data collected by healthcare providers, as well as their increased reliance on cloud-based services and telehealth, make the industry a prime target.
The Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) announced earlier this year that reported cybersecurity incidents relating to the Australian healthcare sector increased by an eye-watering 85% in 2020. In fact, outside of government and individuals, the health sector reported the highest number of cybercrime incidents to the ACSC in 2020.
This should act as a wake-up call for all healthcare organisations to review their cybersecurity hygiene levels before they fall victim to the kind of ransomware attack that has already paralysed Eastern Health, Regis Healthcare and UnitingCare over the last 12 months.
The increase in ransomware attacks on the healthcare sector is being driven by two key factors — it’s a high-value target, and healthcare access points as potential target areas have expanded.
There is no doubt that healthcare data is an attractive target for attackers as it holds highly sensitive personal identifiable information and routinely carries valuable intellectual property on technology and research. This, combined with the critical nature of most healthcare operations, means attackers understand that, in the business of life and death, healthcare organisations simply cannot afford to negotiate for days or weeks while their systems are held hostage by ransomware attacks. For example, in the US, it’s estimated that ransoms totalling $15.6 million were demanded of healthcare organisations last year, over $2 million of which was paid, although in reality the total is likely much higher than what has been publicly reported.

Technology: the missing link to change the future of cancer care
By Bill Petch, All.Can Australia Co-Chair
Thursday, 22 July, 2021
Receiving a cancer diagnosis can be one of the most stressful and unbalancing moments in a person’s life. The delivery of the news itself is enough to cause confusion and panic, but the diagnosis is merely the first step in what can be likened to Alice’s experience of falling down the rabbit hole.
Imagine receiving a diagnosis and then trying to untangle the knot of information and questions that come next. Do I need surgery? What are my treatment options? What specialists should I speak to? Where do I go for treatment? How do I manage work? Are there clinical trials I’m eligible for? The list of questions goes on.
Technological advances in other areas of our lives have created expectations around the immediacy of information, how we acquire it and what sources we trust. We are used to knowledge being a click away; however, health care is a complex system.
By any standard, we have a first-class healthcare system, but often our aspirations fall short, such as in the provision of equitable access. The complexity of the system means there are still areas of unmet need — be that in survival outcomes across cancers; outcomes for regional, remote and Indigenous communities; access to new therapies; new diagnostics; or the rising cost of care.

NBN Co grants telcos lockdown relief
Lucas Baird Reporter
Updated Jul 29, 2021 – 3.55pm, first published at 3.53pm
NBN Co has caved in to industry pressure and will hand retail internet providers like Telstra, Optus and TPG Telecom collectively $5.2 million of credit to offset excess capacity fees as locked down users flock online during the latest wave of COVID-19 lockdowns.
The total may increase over the coming months if NBN Co determines network usage is still over expected levels, with the NSW government likely to keep Greater Sydney in lockdown for longer after it found 239 new cases in the community on Thursday, but it could be a one-off measure.
Sydney’s stay-at-home orders will expire on August 31 at the earliest, at which point it is understood NBN Co will review the relief again.
“The credit payment ... is designed to reduce retailers’ additional wholesale data coverage costs brought on by the incremental increase in usage during the peak evening entertainment hours and to help to ensure they do not fall short of their customers’ data demands,” NBN Co executive Ken Wallis said.

NBN Co to offer a month of bandwidth relief to internet providers
By Ry Crozier on Jul 29, 2021 12:26PM
At a total cost of $5.2 million.
NBN Co will offer internet providers some "relief" on extra bandwidth costs they may be incurring due to lockdowns, but won’t resurrect a bandwidth bonus scheme that ran for much of last year.
The company had been under pressure to act after the top five retail service providers, representing 96 percent of users, wrote to the government seeking intervention.
The RSPs - TPG Telecom, Telstra, Optus, Aussie Broadband and Vocus - said they had seen a “material increase in peak NBN usage” since lockdowns in some states resumed, and were therefore incurring extra costs.
They were unsuccessful in seeking assistance from NBN Co directly and escalated the issue to the communications minister.

Australia's top NBN RSPs say lockdowns expose them to excess bandwidth charges again
By Ry Crozier on Jul 27, 2021 12:15AM
Lobbying govt for another temporary bandwidth bonus.
Australia’s five biggest internet providers are lobbying NBN Co and the federal government to waive excess bandwidth charges they say are being incurred while parts of Australia re-enter lockdown.
The providers - understood to be Aussie Broadband, TPG Telecom, Telstra, Optus and Vocus - escalated their request to Communications Minister Paul Fletcher after being rebuffed by NBN Co.
The existence of a letter sent by the retail service providers, which collectively account for over 96 percent of all NBN fixed-line users, was first reported by CommsDay.
The letter text, which was also sighted by iTnews, called on the government to reintroduce a connectivity virtual circuit (CVC) bonus scheme that ran for much of last year.

NBN Co moves closer to ISP lockdown relief
Lucas Baird Reporter
Jul 26, 2021 – 4.14pm
NBN Co is closing in on relief for retail internet providers including Telstra, Optus and TPG Telecom after they appealed directly to the Morrison government to force the state-owned entity to reinstate pandemic capacity discounts to avoid network congestion and sluggish speeds for locked-down consumers.
With residents of Sydney and Melbourne under strict orders from their respective state governments to stay at home, retailers claim to have witnessed a 30 per cent spike in internet usage, which has strained their networks and heaped wholesale cost pressures on their businesses as they shell out more cash to lift their capacity on the national broadband network.
But NBN Co has so far resisted calls to reinstate a free 40 per cent capacity boost for retailers it had in place for most of 2020, and instead said usage was up by only 8 per cent on Sunday, July 18, on a week-on-week basis.
Five telcos – Telstra, Optus, TPG, Vocus and Aussie Broadband – wrote to Communications Minister Paul Fletcher over the weekend in a bid to break this deadlock.

NBN Co brings in KPMG to audit subcontractor pay
By Ry Crozier on Jul 26, 2021 6:35AM
Ignores question about whether the review will be made public.
NBN Co has commissioned KPMG to conduct a promised audit of pay received by field services subcontractors and technicians following protests earlier this year.
The company said in late May that it had called in an “independent auditor” to assess claims made by subcontractors that their pay had been cut after NBN Co changed the way it outsourced field services to its major delivery partners.
NBN Co said at the time that it could not confirm the quantum of cuts being seen by its extended field workforce, but promised a review as well as “interim” payments to technicians while that review process was underway.
Chief operating officer Kathrine Dyer said at the time the review would take “a number of weeks” to complete.
The company has now confirmed further details of the process.
