My Health Record is a secure online summary of your health information. You can control what goes into it, and who is allowed to access it. You can choose to share your health information with your doctors, hospitals and other healthcare providers.

Having a My Health Record means your important health information like allergies, current conditions and treatments, medicine details, pathology reports or diagnostic imaging scan reports can be digitally stored in one place. Healthcare providers like doctors, specialists and hospital staff can see these details online from anywhere at any time when they need to, such as in an accident or emergency.

Benefits of having a My Health Record

1. Better Access:

Your important healthcare information will be available in one place online that is easily accessible by your authorised doctors, specialists, or hospitals. Your information can be viewed securely online, anywhere, any time.

2. Improved Safety:

In a medical emergency, healthcare providers connected to the My Health Record system can see your health information to provide you the best possible care quickly.

3. More Convenient:

You won’t need to worry about having to remember and repeat your health history like medicines, details of chronic conditions, and dates of recent tests with different or new healthcare providers.

4. Strong Security:

There are strict rules and regulations on who can see or use your My Health Record to protect your health information from misuse or loss. There are penalties for anyone who breaks these.

5. Privacy Matters:

To create a My Health Record, they will collect information about you and your children from Medicare and some other government bodies including your name, date of birth, and Medicare records from the last two years. Registered healthcare provider organisations such as general practices and hospitals will be able to access your My Health Record when providing healthcare to you.
