Description

There's belief from experts that efforts to launch a single electronic medical record are 'well overdue'.

The Government is embarking on a 10-year Health Digital Investment Plan to improve Health New Zealand's digital infrastructure. 

The single record would replace 6,000 different systems currently in use.

College of GPs Medical Director Luke Bradford says it's needed. 

"We've been doing fragmented, piecemeal, bespoke solutions that don't get delivered for years, so this is something that we can at least build towards."
