Australian Digital Health Agency
Australian government agency responsible for digital health
The Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA) is a statutory authority in the Australian Government responsible for the development and implementation of digital health services and systems. The agency plays a crucial role in improving the health outcomes of Australians through the use of digital technologies.
History[edit]
The Australian Digital Health Agency was established in 2016 to drive the digital transformation of health services in Australia. It was created to manage the My Health Record system, a secure online summary of an individual's health information, and to lead the development of other digital health initiatives.
Functions[edit]
The primary functions of the ADHA include:
- Managing My Health Record: The agency oversees the My Health Record system, ensuring it is secure, accessible, and useful for both healthcare providers and patients.
- Developing Digital Health Standards: The ADHA works on creating and maintaining standards for digital health systems to ensure interoperability and security.
- Promoting Digital Health Innovation: The agency supports innovation in digital health technologies and services, encouraging the adoption of new solutions that can improve healthcare delivery.
- Engaging with Stakeholders: The ADHA collaborates with healthcare providers, technology companies, and other stakeholders to advance digital health initiatives.
Key Initiatives[edit]
My Health Record[edit]
The My Health Record system is a central component of the ADHA's work. It provides Australians with a secure online summary of their health information, which can be accessed by healthcare providers across the country. The system aims to improve the coordination of care and reduce duplication of tests and procedures.
Interoperability and Standards[edit]
The ADHA is committed to developing standards that ensure different digital health systems can work together seamlessly. This includes creating frameworks for data exchange and ensuring that systems are secure and protect patient privacy.
Digital Health Strategy[edit]
The agency has developed a National Digital Health Strategy, which outlines the vision for digital health in Australia. This strategy focuses on improving health outcomes through better use of data, enhancing the digital capabilities of the health workforce, and ensuring that digital health services are accessible to all Australians.
Governance[edit]
The ADHA is governed by a board that provides strategic direction and oversight. The board is composed of experts from various fields, including healthcare, technology, and government.
