Whanganui District Health Board (WDHB) went live last month with a new clinical portal based on Orion Health's Concerto technology that will eventually enable the sharing of patient information in the six central region DHBs.

Part of the Regional Health Informatics Program – formerly known as the Central Region Information Systems Plan (CRISP) – the portal will allow clinicians throughout the region to access patient information even if they are admitted to another hospital in another DHB.
