THE New Zealand Government has posted a Request for Information (RFI) seeking input to help the Ministry of Health further develop plans for a national electronic health record (EHR).
Respondents are invited to inform the department about their expertise and experience in the field, with the information provided to inform the development of business cases for the system.
"Establishment of a national EHR would be a significant achievement and long-term strategic asset for the New Zealand health sector and all New Zealanders," the tenders website states.
The proposed EHR would connect data across the digital health ecosystem, including provider and consumer-entered data.
