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.
