----- End Conference.
I have now seen everything! The MC who is an e-Health novice and a paid MC and e-Health non-expert is to explain to Australia what the PCEHR is and then the Secretary of DoHA is going to tell us about Governance.
I have spent so much of my life wanting to hear from the “Chair, National Development Board of Ignite Institute for Individual Health”. I am sure I will be just amazed! (Note: I am reliably informed Omid is a really good guy who really knows his stuff! Sadly the stuff he knows does not seem to really relate the the current issues we face here in e-Health in OZ!)
It is so sad these organising people and bureaucrats are so utterly clueless and technically ignorant.
Overall, this is a joke!
David.
