National Solutions
One of the priorities for eHealth is developing national solutions for specialities such as oncology, cardiac health and renal services.
National solutions are considered for services that are highly specialised but have relatively low numbers of patients, particularly for services where strong national clinical governance is already evident and where information needs to be available for clinicians wherever they are practising, and patients wherever they are living. Where a high degree of standardisation and integration is required, services are run nationally.
