As part of national health reform, consumers and healthcare providers now have better and faster access to pathology and diagnostic imaging reports in their My Health Record.
Better access means that pathology and diagnostic imaging providers are uploading reports by default – already over 4 million pathology and 400,000 diagnostic imaging reports are uploaded weekly, with more than 1.4 million weekly views by patients.
Faster access means that consumers now have access to most reports as soon as they are uploaded rather than experiencing a delay.

Women contribute across every part of our health system, from research and policy, to clinical care, allied health and community care services and support.
Their skills and lived-experience expertise have particularly helped to bring long-overdue attention to women's health issues to begin addressing the gender biases and gaps that have existed in approaches to research, diagnosis and care.
In the spirit of this year's International Women's Day theme, 'Balancing the Scales', Brisbane South PHN recognises and gives special thanks to the women in health whose expertise, care and leadership continue to improve healthcare experiences and outcomes for all women, families and communities across Australia.

More than half a million Australians have served in the Australian Defence Force, with 84,865 current serving members and 496,276 former serving members. Veterans and their families can face specific challenges and health concerns because of their experiences from serving in the defence force, as well as the differences between the military health care system and the civilian health care system.
Resources, training and initiatives that support primary care professionals to provide care for veterans and their families are now available.
Thank you to 104,000 primary health care nurses across Australia. We know that primary health care nurses are essential at every stage of care, from prevention and early intervention to ongoing support in communities.
If you’re a newly graduated nurse or new to working in general practice, our Practice Nurse Support Program can provide ongoing support, advice, and mentoring.

Brisbane South PHN is a not-for-profit organisation that works in partnership with local community organisations, health care professionals, regional hospital and health services, state and federal governments, and the public, private and not-for-profit sectors to support a well-coordinated and collaborative primary health system.
We are committed to increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of medical services and improving health and wellbeing in Brisbane south. We do this through both supporting primary care providers and directly commissioning services.
Our region contains 23% of Queensland’s population. This includes a large proportion of vulnerable populations, including culturally and linguistically diverse peoples, refugees, older persons, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. The Brisbane south region covers a large geographic area south of the Brisbane River, including metropolitan, rural and remote island locations, and its residents have varied expectations about health and health services.
Given the wide variations in social determinants of health, health behaviours, health outcomes and system/service availability, our role is particularly important for those most vulnerable in the community and at risk of poor health outcomes.
We support the primary health sector through:
providing support services so health service providers can be better placed to deliver care to patients, keeping them healthy and out of hospital
providing workforce development through training and education
working with practices to understand and use eHealth systems
careful analysis and planning to identify and address health service gaps
working with others to purchase or commission health services for local groups most in need, including patients with complex chronic conditions or mental illness.
