Connecting Australia to a healthier future
The need for a connected healthcare system is greater than ever – one that’s accessible, progressive and secure.

My Health Record

What is digital health?
We have one of the best healthcare systems, but there are still opportunities for improvement. Better use of technology can help improve the healthcare system for providers and help people live healthier lives, with greater control and better access to their information.
Progress is being made to connect Australia to better healthcare with My Health Record, electronic prescriptions, and telehealth.

Healthcare that knows and understands you
Having a more complete picture of your health can help your healthcare providers make more informed decisions about your wellbeing. Through a connected healthcare system, your doctors can deliver treatment that's safer and more personalised.

Healthcare for today's challenges
Managing your health isn't always as simple as just popping into a doctor's practice. For those in regional areas, a check-up may require a day-long car trip. Digital health is connecting Australia to a healthier future by connecting you to better healthcare.
