ACT Health will go live with its Digital Health Record in September 2022 in a big bang implementation that it believes will allow it to leapfrog the other jurisdictions to become the most digitally enabled health system in the country.
The centrepiece of the DHR is what ACT Health CIO Peter O’Halloran says will be deepest and broadest implementation of the Epic electronic medical record in Australia, which will now also include Epic’s Beaker laboratory information system, its Radiant radiology information system and its patient administration system, the first time these modules will be rolled out locally.
