Let's Talk eHealth

In this podcast, we talk about the Patient Reported Measures (PRMs) program that is helping NSW Health deliver value-based healthcare.

Delivered through a purpose-built IT platform called Health Outcomes and Patient Experience (HOPE), PRM surveys capture information from people about their healthcare experiences and outcomes at the point of care.

Clinicians and healthcare services use this data for shared decision-making with patients and to provide care that meets their needs.

In this episode, we talk to HPC Design Lead Gordon Burnett and Service Designer at NSW Health Pathology Alex Garrett to learn about the Health Prototyping Centre.

An initiative between eHealth NSW, HealthShare NSW, Health Infrastructure NSW and NSW Health Pathology, we discuss
how the Health Prototyping Centre is enabling customers across NSW Health to rapidly test ideas, designs and concepts before building a final version of the product.

NSW Health is embarking on the greatest digital transformation in the generation and at the forefront is cloud technology.  

In this episode, we hear from eHealth NSW’s experts, Adam Stanzione, Director of Cloud Services, Michael Bogiatzis, Director of eHealth NSW’s Critical Infrastructure Refresh, and Daniel Hansen, Senior Program Manager of Cloud Transformation Services. 

The team unpack some of the basics of cloud technology, starting right at the beginning… they also delve into how cloud is being used to accelerate innovation, modernise service delivery and deliver real world impacts. This is all helping to deliver better outcomes and experiences for patients, clinicians and staff across NSW Health.

When a patient transfers from the ward to the intensive care unit, it’s vital the patient’s medication management information, allergies & adverse drug reactions is also transferred between the electronic systems so clinicians can review and modify medication orders as necessary.

This is where the integrated Transitions of Care (iTOC) Design Working Group comes in – their goal is simple but important. They’re working on designing a solution to ensure this information is transferred safely and accurately.
