Update or remove a Record Access Code

Once you set a Record Access Code (RAC), you'll need to give it to any new healthcare organisations you want to access your record. Organisations that accessed your record before you set a RAC won’t need the code again. You can generate a new code or delete one you have already set via the 1800MEDICARE app.

  1. Log in to the 1800MEDICARE app

    Open the 1800MEDICARE app, select Log in.

  2. Select a record

    Choose the record you want to access. This could be your record or someone you care for.

  3. Select the profile icon

    In the top right corner of your screen, select the profile icon.

    Select Privacy and access.

  5. Select 'Healthcare organisations'
