Connecting Australia to a healthier future

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.

Whether it's a secure connection to doctors, electronic prescriptions or telehealth, progress is being made to connect Australia to better healthcare.
 

Healthcare that meets the needs of Australians

The world is changing and the need for a connected healthcare system is greater than ever. Technology is helping more Australians access safer, better quality healthcare. Today, digital health has become a vital part of a modern, accessible healthcare system designed to meet the needs of all Australians.

Healthcare that knows and understands you

Having a more complete picture of your health can help your healthcare providers make more informed decisions about your wellbeing. Through a connected healthcare system, your doctors can deliver treatment that's safer and more personalised. 

Healthcare for today's challenges

Managing your health isn't always as simple as just popping into a doctor's practice. For those in regional areas, a check-up may require a day-long car trip. Digital health is helping to remove the barriers to healthcare for all Australians.
