Almost one in three general practices claiming the digital health practice incentives program (ePIP) payment have failed to meet the required number of uploaded shared health summaries to the My Health Record, the AMA says, but despite dire warnings of a mass revolt, only 69 practices have formally withdrawn from the program.

Almost 5000 general practices claim the ePIP – which can total up to $50,000 in payments per practice per year – but the AMA's figures show that just 69 have refused to participate further. However, the organisation is warning that the 1500 practices who have failed to meet the upload target for the first quarter may lose the incentive and leave some of them $20,000 worse off, or even be forced to repay some money.
