The Orion Shared Care Planning platform has relaunched. The learnings from this innovative project are proving invaluable to eHealth NSW in shaping the future of Shared Care Planning.
Several general practices and key GPs registered to trial, easier and secure sharing of information between GPs and the local community has commenced.
Shared Care Planning is on the Commonwealth Agenda; Health Care Homes is a Commonwealth trial to address the needs of complex and chronic health patients by improving communication and collaboration of health teams caring for a patient.
One key element of Health Care Homes is use of a web based Shared Care Planning tool. GPs need to use an electronic shared care tool to receive the funding.
Shared Care Planning is also a priority for the Hon. Brad Hazzard MP, Minister for Health, Ms Elizabeth Koff, Secretary and Ms Susan Pearce, Deputy Secretary, System Purchasing.
