Failing Qld e-health system needs $439 million fix
news Queensland Health needs a mammoth $439 million injection of government funding to fix its ailing patient administration system, according to explosive documents tabled in the state’s parliament by the Queensland Opposition yesterday.
The documents represent an extract from Queensland Health’s ICT strategy for 2011. Although they are not yet available online, the Opposition said in a statement yesterday that they state that the current Patient Administration System in use in hospitals and other health facilities within the state could not be supported beyond 2015. Work to replace the e-health platform would need to begin in July 2012, the documents state, according to the Opposition, and the entire replacement project will come at a cost of $438.8 million.
The Opposition stated that this was money which would need to be allocated to Queensland Health on top of an existing $307 million already budgeted for the state’s e-health strategy, and $220 million which has been allocated to fix Queensland Health’s already disastrous payroll systems overhaul.
