General practitioners in NZ's Northern region now have single sign-on access to the TestSafe clinical data repository through the My Practice and Medtech32 practice management systems, allowing them to log on once per session and see their patients' results with the click of a button.
TestSafe is a shared clinical information service first established at Auckland's Middlemore Hospital to allow hospital doctors to see lab results. Based on Sysmex's Eclair clinical data repository (CDR), it is now used by all four Northern region district health boards and and has since grown to contain diagnostic results and reports, clinical letters, discharge summaries, copies of eReferrals and data on medicines dispensed by community pharmacists.
