Hunter New England Central Coast to trial eReferrals, aged care data sharing

The Hunter New England Central Coast Primary Health Network (HNECC PHN) is set to launch a two-month trial of a new eReferral system aimed at streamlining the referral process between GPs, private specialists and public hospitals, and is also exploring how to use the My Health Record system and NSW's HealtheNet architecture to improve information sharing between aged care facilities and the wider healthcare system.
