... researchers accessed the United States Department of Veterans Affairs
electronic healthcare records (EHRs) to investigate how SARS-CoV-2 reinfection
adds to the risk acquired after the first infection. ...
This is an example of electronic healthcare records being used for a
public benefit. Can Australia's records be used in this way? Have they
been set up to enable this, and is the system working at all?
I gave approval to have a national health care record, but have so far
seen no benefit from it. When I caught COVID-19, the hospital treating
me didn't have any of my medical records, not even what I had typed into
their state system's COVID-19 website the day before. After I recovered,
the federal government sent me a letter saying I was now eligible for
another booster, even though the hospital said I should not for a few weeks.
