DIGITAL HEALTH. © HISA 2018

Details

In the issue of the Medical Journal of Australia published just prior to the November 2007 election, a number of commentators including the Federal Minister and Shadow Minister reflected on the Australian health system and their plans for its future. The members of the Health Informatics Society of Australia (HISA) believe there is a yawning gap in this analysis both in terms of the size of the problem and how it might be fixed.

The Australian Healthcare and Hospitals Association (AHHA) has convened three groups of experts, clinicians and academics to develop practical policy options across a range of areas.

Details

The Health Informatics Society of Australia (HISA) made a proposal to the E-Health Branch of the Australian Department of Health and Ageing (DoHA) that a review of the health informatics workforce be undertaken and were subsequently contracted to „prepare a background discussion paper which sets out the scope and structure of the health informatics workforce and draw together a summary of the key issues, gaps and opportunities for further work to be undertaken on this issue’. This then is a scoping study.

Details

HISA and HIMAA have recommended health informatics and health information management expertise is present at all levels of governance within a proposed Australian Commission for Electronic Health (ACeH).

Details

The competencies set the minimum requirements in terms of skills, knowledge, understandings and capabilities that will enable a candidate to perform in a professional environment. The competencies serve to define what health informatics professionals know and do. This framework can also be used as a set of guidelines for recruiting purposes, definitions of career pathways, or the design of educational and training activities.

They provide the context in which the questions for the CHIA exam have been developed.

Details

The Guidelines serves as a resource to assist the health sector as a whole, and especially healthcare professionals, to protect the personal health information (PHI) they require to do their work, and to meet their role and responsibilities.

They describe key security and privacy issues faced by healthcare organisations and offers guidance for responding to these issues. It is not an all-encompassing guide on the protection of PHI; rather, it is designed as a stepping stone to help healthcare organisations address common concerns, avoid confusion, and prevent misunderstandings. http://healthprivacy.org.au/

The Australian eSafety Professional Practice Guidelines are being released for trial implementation initially, as it is important to acknowledge that patient safety in relation to digital health systems is a topic that continues to evolve, with a growing evidence base and emerging best practices being applied in a number of countries and jurisdictions. The guidelines are the first publication specifically tailored for the Australian digital health sector.
