D Dermatology Management The GP will demonstrate the ability to: • recognise the risk of inappropriate referrals as well as under-referral • operate an efficient system to audit and manage test results, which is understood by all staff and colleagues, and is transparent to the patient • critically appraise the organisational systems of the practice and establish processes for staff training and protocols for equipment, cleaning and sterilisation, sharps and waste disposal • recognise the impact of skin conditions, such as infections, on the population as a whole and take steps to reduce this.

e-health E e-health The World Health Organization describes e-health as ‘the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) for health,’ with examples including treating patients, conducting research, educating the health workforce, tracking diseases and monitoring public health. 1 e-health encompasses products, systems and services including tools for supporting health care used by health professionals, authorities, patients and the wider community. e-health is rapidly evolving and expanding into everyday general practice. It has been adopted in primary care from an early stage through electronic patient records, recall systems, prescriptions and patient management systems. Developments are under way in New Zealand through the National IT Health Plan 2 in partnership with software providers. This will include a virtual health record, a shared care record and a national patient portal through which patients will be able to communicate with their clinicians in a secure environment. e-health has significant implications for both patients and clinicians. Advances in technology and the development of e-health have many potential benefits for delivering health care. It is important, however, that privacy, security and safety of care are not compromised. General practitioners need to be aware of the risks and potential issues involved in some forms of e-health, for example using email – the Medical Council of New Zealand provides guidance in this area. 3 Furthermore, email, internet and smartphone applications (‘apps’) have quickly become part of everyday life and many patients expect health care providers to adopt this technology. ‘Telehealth’, the direct (e.g. videoconferencing) or indirect (e.g. website) delivery of health information or health care is another emerging field of e-health, which may become more widespread, for example providing care in rural areas. 1 http://www.who.int/topics/ehealth/en/ Accessed May 2012. 2 National IT Health Board. 2010.
