The Pharmacy Guild has recommended that community pharmacists be funded by the federal government to upload dose administration aid (DAA) profiles to the My Health Record system to provide a reconciled, up-to-date medications profile for high-risk patients living in both the community and in residential aged care.
The Guild has also called for the community pharmacy sector to be incentivised to integrate the My Health Record into their systems and workflows, and for dispense software vendors to be funded to develop an integrated controlled drug electronic register.
