Tuesday 17 – Wednesday 18 June 2025, at QT Canberra, 1 London Cct, Canberra ACT 2601
Brought to you by Health Services Daily, Wild Health and The Medical Republic, in partnership with the Australasian Institute of Digital Health and Nous Group.
A half-day workshop and one-day summit, bringing together key thought leaders from state and federal governments and agencies, hospitals, PHNs, primary, specialist and allied care provider groups, consumer health advocates, private health insurers and leading technology vendors, to
examine what practical steps we could take from here to help better align current disparate policies, regulation, initiatives, technology and politics towards a framework that would facilitate our entire healthcare system operating more like it was one integrated system.
The event is not about moonshot ideas.
It will aim to surface and discuss obvious, practical and achievable initiatives to shift the system away from the many redundancies and inefficiencies that have built up as natural consequence of a federated model of funding and care and a now large legacy technology base.
Webinar: Core clinician use cases for a national HIE and related national interoperability initiatives
A one hour expert webinar looking at how our proposed national Health Information Exchange and key related national interoperability initiatives, such as upgrading the My Health Record and the development and mandating of standards of data sharing for our major software platforms, might directly benefit the day to day operational efficiency of clinicians working at the coal face in our hospitals, general practice and the community.
Date: Tuesday May 20th
Time: 1pm – 2pm AEST
Speakers:
- Bettina McMahon, CEO, Healthdirect
- Dr Suzanne Miller, Director of Strategy, Quality, and Technology, Victorian VED
- Dr Peter Sprivulis, Chief Clinical Information Officer, Department of Health WA
- Andrew Aho, Regional Director of Data Platforms, InterSystems
Moderated by Jeremy Knibbs, Publisher of Health Services Daily and The Medical Republic.
Topics:
- What are the key clinical use cases being used in modelling our major national interoperability initiatives and how do they relate to current state operations in our hospitals, general practice and community care.
- What are the pain points for transition for the key use cases, what comes first, and why?
- How do these use cases relate to patient outcomes and how are the architects of our interoperability future taking into account the views of patients in the new evolving paradigm
- Specific use cases for a national HIE, an enhanced My Health Record, mandated vendor data sharing standards and more.
- What looks easy, what looks hard? Where is our likely biggest ROI in the range of initiatives on the table?
- Is significantly enhanced hospital to GP interoperability the most important short term use case? If not, what is and why?
- Where is aged and community care in the picture?
- Timelines and means of contributing to the process
