CHN hosted 3 educational webinars, covering topics such as My Health Record, electronic prescribing, secure messaging and electronic referrals. Digital health staff also presented at other CHN events to promote digital health tools and platforms. CHN also co-promoted 2 digital health webinars hosted by other PHNs, with one targeted at medical specialists to encourage uptake and use of digital health tools in practice, the other promoting Provider Connect Australia (PCA) to general practices.
Regular communication promoting digital health tools and platforms was provided to CHN’s members and key stakeholders, including short promotional articles, sharing Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA) resources and materials, as well as original resources created by CHN. The team also interviewed users of digital health platforms for articles informing readers about the benefits of using digital health tools from a first-hand, medical professionals’ perspective. One of these articles, promoting the Head to Health service and their integrated remote patient monitoring services, was published in the Australian Healthcare and Hospitals Association’s, The Health Advocate magazine.
Promotion of My Health Record and eNRMC (electronic National Residential Medication Charts) in Residential Aged Care Facilities (RACFs) saw increased interest in both tools.
