New Zealand’s health sector is beginning to change the way health services are delivered and how the population receive those services. Our final seminar for 2009 will look at how telehealth is being used as a tool for providing access to health information and treatment for a dispersed population. What direction could New Zealand move over the next few years regarding the national policy for telehealth, the methodologies for treating of patients remotely, lessons learned from current projects, and what is happening in Australia and internationally.

Clinical Education Centre, Auckland City Hospital

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

The 'Wicked Problem' of Whether and How to Share Electronic Health Records

There is now near-universal agreement that a development of a widely accessible shared electronic health record (EHR) available to multiple healthcare providers has to be one of the highest priorities for the New Zealand health sector. In this third HINZ Seminar looking at this topic we examine plans to implement shared electronic health records in New Zealand and we hear from international speakers who have been studying this question for some time.
