Hi Thomas,
As a member of RACS, I was interested in what Australia is planning in Health
IT. I even wrote to a professor who was interested in implementing something
for surgical audit and electronic log books. I mentioned that it is in the best
interests of Australia to use open standards and remain independent of US based
software and standards unless absolutely necessary. I did not receive a reply
yet.
I do hope that FOSS and open standards and OpenEHR and archetypes will be used
from the onset. If there is cross state agreement, they could pulll off
something workable without the huge financial input made by the British.

The National e-Health Transition Authority (nehta.gov.au) is considering
standards for the future e-Health framework for Australia. openEHR is
probably the major contender in the EHR space. You can see some
commentary about openEHR, archetypes, HL7 from the earlier CIP project in
HealthConnect (Australia). Clinical Information Project Phase 1
Report, PART A Stream 1: Clinical Information Framework. 2004. Available
at http://www.healthconnect.gov.au/pdf/cipp1pa.pdf
Archetypes are more or less a given in Australia, we know that much.
Some announcement by NeHTA on other standards will be made
<http://www.healthconnect.gov.au/pdf/cipp1pa.pdf> early 2006 I believe.
Apart from that, openEHR 0.9 is already in use in the Queensland Health
clinical data repository, and many applications are going to be
converted to talking openEHR. There are also other implementations
underway in Australia. Not much information is published about these
projects so far. Here is one paper:
