The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) says it is disappointed that there is no direct college representative on the steering committee overseeing the implementation of the new Australian Commission for eHealth (ACeH).
While there are three doctors on the committee – former AMA president and current NEHTA chair Steve Hambleton, Queensland GP Ewen McPhee and Melbourne's Chris Pearce – they have been appointed as individuals rather than on behalf of the college.
