The importance of digital health tools in improving the sharing of information across the healthcare sector is central to our work. Digital health tools can reduce the time spent accessing health history by streamlining information into one secure location. This seamless integration improves continuity of care and can potentially save valuable time, especially in emergency situations.
As part of the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, in the detailed report titled, Care, Dignity and Respect, Royal Commissioners called for fundamental reform to the aged care system. The Agency is addressing recommendations and delivering refined digital health solutions to enable a better connected healthcare system for all.
