The free webinar series will bring together key leaders from across the sector to discuss some of the hottest topics facing healthcare.
In the lead-up to the Towards One Healthcare System Summit in June, HSD and TMR are producing three free webinars to kickstart the conversation.
Each webinar will be live and the speakers will answer any questions you have on the day. They will also be recorded and available to stream on demand for those who register.
Webinar 1: Core clinician use cases for a national HIE and related national interoperability initiatives
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.
Tuesday, 20 May @ 1pm 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 Include:
- 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.
Join two important conversations
The next two free webinars are produced by Health Services Daily in partnership with Visionflex, and will bring together a team of thought leaders in the lead-up to the Canberra Towards One Healthcare System Summit looking at how we might optimise already deployed funding and new technology to actually move the dial on delivering some connectedness to our aged care sector.
