Citizens, Patients and Policy: A Challenge for Australia's National Electronic Health Record.

Citizens, Patients and Policy: A Challenge for Australia's National Electronic Health Record. HIM J. 2011 Jun;40(2):39-43 Authors: Showell CM Abstract Australia will implement a personally controlled electronic health record (PCEHR) over the next three to five years. Development of an e-health policy framework to support this initiative has involved healthcare providers and patients, but the discussion appears to have bypassed non-patient citizens. There is a risk that this omission may result in difficulties with implementation and uptake of the new system. PMID: 28683627 [PubMed]
