Melbourne-based software vendor Global Health has signed a three-year agreement with area mental health service Mercy Mental Health to deploy its MasterCare electronic medical record system along with the ReferralNet secure messaging platform and the ReferralNet e-switch enterprise integration broker.

Mercy Health, which covers the western suburbs of Melbourne, is the second area health service in Victoria that will implement MasterCare for mental health, following a similar roll-out across South West Healthcare in 2014.
