I have an interest in interoperability. Bearing in mind the
proprietary nature of database schema, do you think it would be
possible, and would there be interest in, devising a Common
Electronic Health Record format for Australian GP held medical
records.
Possible - easy.
Interest - from whom, the vendors?
It should be a government mandate, and if they were capable of
efficiency it could be done by wiki and completed in a short
timeframe, with the input of the vendors and interested parties like
those on this list.
We live in hope. PG 4 PM, then maybe we'll see some innovation in
government.
cheers,
Peter.
