[LINK] IP issues of Health information

[Bernard Robertson-Dunn]

Thanks to Jan I have just looked up the draft PCEHR Concept of 
Operations and the National e-health strategy

What amazes me is that health information and the e-health record are 
not defined in anyway. Either in Deloitte's national e-health strategy 
or the ConOp document, which says:

> The details of what information will be available through the
> national PCEHR System will be subject to further consultation with
> the community. The content available in an individual’s PCEHR
> from July 2012 will also depend on the readiness of further
> healthcare provider information systems to participate in the
> national PCEHR program.

Apart from all the other issues of building a system based upon a total 
lack of knowledge of what information is to be in it, what's the current 
view of Intellectual Property and health records?
