Yesterday it was announced that the Boston Consulting Group have been
engaged to review NEHTA.
****
As a heading in David More's blog says: "Here we go again!". We seem to
keep having reviews, reports, task forces, committees, Ministerial
something or others etc. etc. without very much actual action about
improving Australian health informatics.
David points out in his blog that it will be important for the
consultants conducting the review to be "gathering the views of all
relevant parties including consumers, the MSIA, Health IT Vendors, the
AIIA, AHIC and Academia". It will also be vital to gather the views of
medical professional organisations including the RACGP, AMA, AGPN and
ACRRM, who represent the actual end users of electronic health
information systems, for their opinions and feedback about how well
NeHTA is fulfilling its mission.
I will certainly be sending my personal report about what I believe
NeHTA has achieved and not achieved to the review's email address:
