The 2012 HINZ Seminar Series continues with breakfast with Dr Michael Stearns. Join us...

In Search of meaningful use

A new way of stimulating systemic Health IT change is currently taking hold with some spectacular results.

Until recently the US, like most other countries, approached the implementation of health IT by commissioning and funding projects, then looking for ways in which successful projects could be scaled
up and replicated across the country.  At the 2011 Conference we heard from Dr David Blumenthal, Architect of ‘Meaningful Use’,
and the new way in which health sector automation is being approached.

This HINZ breakfast is your opportunity to learn more about Meaningful Use and why this approach is succeeding where other approaches have failed.

The New Zealand Telehealth Forum and HINZ are pleased to announce 2012 HINZ Seminar Series...

Telehealth - A Call to arms

Why is there so much growth in the use of telehealth throughout the world?  What is happening here in New Zealand?  How can sustainable telehealth services deliver better, sooner, more convenient health care for New Zealanders?

This symposium will cover progress and opportunities in telemonitoring and home monitoring services, especially for those with long term conditions, and how New Zealanders are benefiting from videoconferencing services in the North and South Islands. We’ll cover the latest developments in Australia and opportunities for Australasian collaboration. We’ll hear from the Forum’s sponsor, the National Health IT Board, on the fit with shared care strategies and maximising the benefits of the government’s broadband programme to support rural populations and clinical networks.

This symposium has been endorsed by The Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners
(RNZCGP) and has been approved for up to 6 hours CME for General Practice Educational Programme Stage 2 (GPEP2) and Maintenance of Professional Standards (MOPS) purposes.

Presentations from 'Caring and Sharing' - The Quest to Develop a Strategy for Sharing Electronic Patient Records

Presentations from 'Caring and Sharing' - The Quest to Develop a Strategy for Electronic Patient Records

Friday 24th July 2009
Clinical Education Centre, Auckland City Hospital

'Caring and Sharing' - The Quest to Develop a Strategy for Sharing Electronic Patient Records

 
When:  9am - 2pm, Friday 24th July 2009

Where:  Clinical Educational Centre, Auckland City Hospital

For the past year, Health Informatics New Zealand (HINZ) has been endeavouring to stimulate debate re the development of a national electronic health records strategy. Development of a viable information sharing strategy is becoming more and more important to the New Zealand health sector. On one hand the pressure on the system to develop safe, reliable and easy to use mechanisms for sharing patient information is mounting.   On the other hand we are becoming more and more aware of the complexities and challenges of doing so.

Speakers:

  • Professor Tricia Greenhalgh, NHS's Summary Care Records Project
  • Dr Karen Gibson, NEHTA
  • Dr Zoran Bolevich, Ministry of Health
  • Dr Inga Hunter, Massey University


HINZ Conference and Exhibition 30 Sept - 2 Oct 2009

Closing comments from the SPC Chair

I'm very pleased to say a very big thank-you to all the people who made HINZ 2009 a success: Linda and her team of course, the people who came and listened, the people who presented and especially the SPC.

It’s a little bit odd being on the programme committee - you’ve pretty much finished your work by the time the conference comes around and you don’t always get to see the papers you reviewed being presented. Highlights for me were the presentations by the invited speakers especially the Jims and Johanna, Ron’s talk, and the real effort by everyone to put patients at the centre of their work. I think the quality of the scientific presentations justified the effort put in by both presenters and reviewers.

I’ll be inviting presenters of the scientific papers to prepare their papers for publication in HCIRO - December edition , but many of the other papers would also be of interest to our readership and I hope that some of the more general and practice–based papers can also get published – perhaps using some of the support we have from the ministry to pay for the extra work needed.

One aspect that really impresses me is the degree to which there really is something for everyone at HINZ, its lucky in a way because the NZ Health Informatics community is very small, and we would get sick of hearing just from each other. The History of HINZ  especially all the work done by Robyn Carr and past SPC'ers has kept that inclusiveness and continued to keep HINZ relevant.  Health IT is at the heart of so much clinical work, and a major industry in its own right, so having a place for those conversations is vital.

We can always improve. There was certainly a call for more time - especially more time for questions- so we might well have to look at the programme for next year, similarly the posters may need to move somewhere closer to coffee, I’m sure there will be other areas for improvement and feel very free to contact me or the exec about any ideas you have.

See you in wellington next year if not before.

-- David Parry, Chair of the Scientific Programme Committee
