HealtheNet and My Health RecordHealtheNet provides NSW Health clinicians with immediate access to up-to-date, aggregated summary information about a patient's recent health history from across all Local Health Districts (LHDs) and access to the My Health Record. My Health Record ExpansionIn 2019, every Australian will have a My Health Record unless they choose not to have one. The three month opt out period has been extended to the 31 January 2019 when individuals can inform the Government if they’d like to opt out of the My Health Record system. By early 2019, all Australians who didn’t opt-out will be issued a record. LEGISLATION CHANGES TO MY HEALTH RECORDOn the 26 November 2018, the Australian Parliament passed the My Health Records Amendments (Strengthening Privacy) Bill 2018. This Bill included a series of changes that further protect the privacy of people using the My Health Record system.
