The technology developed by NZ's Best Practice Advocacy Centre (BPAC) for GP eReferrals is being used by an Australian primary health network as part of a trial to improve health information sharing between the primary and secondary care sectors.
BPAC's solution is used by the five Midland district health boards – Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Taranaki, Tairawhiti and Lakes – and has clocked up over 900,000 eReferrals in the last five years.
