The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) has officially launched a new project aiming to work more closely with medical software vendors to determine minimum clinical software functionality requirements for general practice software.

First announced at the RACGP's eHealth forum in Melbourne last year, the project has the backing of the Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA) and promises a collaboration to ensure clinical software is "usable, secure, interoperable and fit for purpose".
