The Australian Digital Health Agency will hold an information session for stakeholders and potential partners to learn more about its vision for national digital health infrastructure.
The information session will be held at the Hellenic Club in Canberra on July 15, 2024.
Chief Digital Officer Peter O’Halloran said the information session will allow the sector to learn about the Agency’s digital health infrastructure and the unified architecture needed to support connected health care.
“The Agency is committed to modernising the My Health Record system from a clinical document repository to a data-rich platform built on the international data exchange standard known as Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR), to ensure health data can be seamlessly connected across all parts of the health system,” he said.
“The Agency has had great success with the establishment of a new API Gateway, and transition to cloud storage, the next step is to implement a new FHIR-based repository, which will allow storage of key records that form part of each consumer’s My Health Record.”
O’Halloran encouraged industry, potential partners, and other interested parties to register for the information session and submit their questions in advance.
“Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback that will help us shape our procurement activities and market engagement approach,” he said.
