My Health Record: ADHA seeks industry input on support, maintenance
The Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA) has released a request for information (RFI) seeking insights on the application support and maintenance (ASM) of the country’s digital health infrastructure, including My Health Record.
CEO Amanda Cattermole PSM said, “In a rapidly evolving sector this RFI represents a pivotal step towards supporting a modernised My Health Record system using the latest technological advances — helping to ensure that our digital health infrastructure is contemporary, adaptable and prepared for the future.
“This will be vital as we take appreciable steps towards a health information system that provides near real-time data sharing for all Australians and the healthcare providers who care for them.”
The Agency is inviting all types of organisations, including small to medium enterprises, to provide insights on how best to deliver the support, maintenance and enhancement of My Health Record and other applications.
Input from the RFI will inform the Agency's planned market approach in 2025 to procure future ASM services. ASM services will likely involve collaboration with other vendors and solutions in line with tenders recently published.
ADHA’s Chief Technology Officer, John Borchi, urged vendors to contribute their expertise and vision. “Our ambitious agenda to transform digital health infrastructure relies on the unique perspectives and extensive expertise of industry. The responses to this RFI will greatly influence our ongoing digital infrastructure strategy, although participation is not a prerequisite for future procurement opportunities,” Borchi said.
The Agency will host a virtual industry briefing on 12 November 2024 to provide stakeholders with key details related to the RFI. Those interested must register in advance to participate. The event will also be recorded and published on the Agency’s website.
