The Australasian College of Health Informatics (ACHI) has put together 30 recommendations that it says can be put into immediate action by the government to make substantial improvements to the functioning of the PCEHR.

As part of its submission on the recent Electronic Health Records and Healthcare Identifiers legislation discussion paper, ACHI has also taken the opportunity to pose questions about the broader issues raised by the Royle review of the PCEHR and whether the system complies with existing Australian and international standards.
