eHealth NSW is planning to develop a business case to adapt its electronic medical record roll-out strategy for small sites such as multi-purpose services in rural and remote areas as part of its $48 million rural eHealth program.

eHealth NSW is just over a year into the program, which will see a number of clinical, corporate and infrastructure solutions rolled out to the six rural local health districts, including phases one and two of the Cerner EMR, electronic medications management, HealtheNet, the new ICU solution known as eRIC, the community health and outpatients system known as CHOC, universal wireless and the Health Wide Area Network (HWAN).
