JeHDI
Why is JHC involved in processing
with an electronic health initiative?
Joint Health Command (JHC) provides health care and ensures the
operational preparedness of ADF, and provides health force-preparation
and advice in conjunction with Headquarters Joint Operations Command
(HQ JOC). JHC develops strategic health policy, provides strategic level
health advice and exercises technical and financial control of ADF
health units.
Garrison Health Operations (GHO) coordinates the provision of high
quality non-operational health support to ADF members and entitled
personnel both within Australia and overseas.
Health staff within HQ JOC and the single-service environmental
commands are responsible for health aspects of deployable capability.
JHC is seeking to implement an eHealth system that will rationalise and
consolidate the information currently gathered through existing systems
to enable better health service provision effectiveness and efficiency.
Expectations of JeHDI
The purpose of the Joint e-Health Data and Information System (JeHDI)
Project is to develop and implement an ADF electronic health
information system that will link health data from recruitment to
discharge and subsequent management in other agencies and will:
• Provide an electronic health record (EHR) for ADF personnel
• Improve the productivity of health care personnel/contractors
• Provide the ability to map health related trends and patterns from
ADF health data
• Provide the ability to derive financial reports related to the
provision of health care to ADF personnel
• Maintain the security of health data
We need your assistance!
We are making the opportunity available for you to provide direct input
to the Project team as the JeHDI system is developed. The team seeks
your comments based upon your professional, local and personal
experience. A series of user workshops were held to develop the set of
scenarios illustrated on this site. There is a core set of 27 scenarios that
are being used to develop the prototype.
