IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST - IS MEDICARE GOING TO BE PRIVATISED OR ARE THE COSTS GOING TO ICT COMPANIES ?

On 01 Jul 2016 the "National E-Health Transistion Authority [NEHTA]" vested all its Assets
and Liabilities in the "Australian Digital Health Agency [ADHA]" ref ADHA Web-site

Here is the Blog of Dr David MORE MB PhD FACHI on "waste of money" with Australian E-Health Standards

NATIONAL E-HEALTH STANDARDS DEVELOPMENT - 3.2.4 NEHTA'S INVOLVEMENT IN STANDARDS DEVELOPMENT

4 NEHTA'S INVOLVEMENT IN STANDARDS DEVELOPMENT

NEHTA recognises Standards Australia’s unique role in standards development in 
Australia and will collaborate with Standards Australia in the following ways to ensure a 
comprehensive, coherent and navigable e-health standards development program for 
Australia: 

1 Clinical Terminologies developed and contextualised by NEHTA are expected to be 
  published and through the SNOMED Standards Development Organisation.  

  It is currently anticipated that clinical data standards developed by NEHTA will 
  be published as Australian Standards.   
 
2 NEHTA will also produce a standards catalogue, providing guidance as to which 
  standards should be used in the e-health domain. 
 
3 NEHTA may also, from time to time, produce or commission other technical 
  specifications.  

  These may also be published via Standards Australia as lower level 
  consensus documents following their fast tracked development.  

  IT-014 will then assume responsibility for the ongoing maintenance and lifecycle 
  management for those specifications that are published formally as Australian Standards.  
  Harmonisation with existing standards will be undertaken where feasible, and any 
  differences between NEHTA’s technical specifications and existing standards will be 
  documented in the published specifications, along with their rationale and a summary 
  of the expected implications, in order to minimise market uncertainty. 
 
4 NEHTA’s other major role is to develop design specifications for national services such 
  as individual and health provider identification services and health-related product 
  catalogues.  

  As far as possible these designs will adopt international and Australian standards.  

  Both as a major user of standards and an agent for Australian Governments, NEHTA will 
  provide feedback to standards developers on any perceived issues with existing and 
  proposed standards from an implementation perspective so as to enable the enhancement 
  of those standards for the benefit of all stakeholders.  
 
  NEHTA will also identify areas where additional standards and specifications are 
  required and, where appropriate, act as a lead agency for their development in 
  accordance with the Guiding Principles above. 


Key elements of these principles are detailed in 3.2.1 - 3.2.5 
 
		3.2.1	Code of Good Practice
		3.2.2	Consensus
		3.2.3	Collaboration
		3.2.4	NEHTA’s Involvement in Standards Development
		3.2.5	Quality
