My Health Record
OK good folk of the forum, what do you think? As people with a complex health issue, with multiple specialists, this is something that directly impacts us, and could benefit us greatly (memory issues anyone?!). However there's privacy issues (any government department can access it without your knowledge), identity theft, insurance denial, employment issues etc. I just asked my GP about it today and she is officially undecided. She said get back to me on that one, the practice is having a meeting about it tomorrow! To opt out or not, that is the question. Would love to hear your thoughts.1.7KViews0likes54CommentsConsumers Health Forum of Australia - My Health Record Webinars
To help consumers make an informed and considered decision about My Health Record, Consumers Health Forum of Australia are holding a series of 6 webinars that cover the key information people need to understand the benefits and risks of My Health Record in the context of their own lives. The recording of the first webinar on privacy, security and My Health Record is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yhx4WZP6EM We are working on summarising the information covered, and will have some resources available soon. We received a lot of questions we weren’t able to get to during the panel, and will be posting answers on our website or asking the questions in other webinars. We are also finalising the rest of the webinars in the series. All are now open for registration and questions can be submitted for the next 4 webinars.
