Connected Health Information Services

Connected Health Information Services enable the safe sharing of trusted health information.

The Ministry of Health is responsible to the sector for the delivery of these services.

The Ministry is accountable for governance, management, some operational components, control and audit, and national service performance monitoring.

This service and technology are continually evolving so information can be securely shared to enable integrated models of care.
