What system do I need to install to communicate with you securely?
A closed, proprietary one, I suspect, judging by the following exchange
between Duncan and Ian:
Yes Tim,
Proprietry and closed but using HL7 messaging based on the Australian
standard so messages can be exported easily to any other system in
future if we decided to change.
The division and our group tried to get open source "free" systems set
up but it was too hard.
We as the specialists are willing to pay a vendor for their services -
which includes installation at GPs, 1800 help number etc.
By paying a vendor we have also enticed them to work closely with our
EMR vendor and our online dictation provider to create an integrated
solution that improves workflow and decreases staff time.
At present it seems that there is no "free solution" - either the doctor
or the division has to pay - the costs are just hidden.
