Challenges & Opportunities
Opportunity for Clinical
Computing
Existing Challenges• Cost of operations• Security risks• Misalignment to clinical
needs• Lack of staff & resources
Emerging Challenges• Delivering care in new
contexts• Clinical need for point-of-care
access to information• Staff mobility• Next generation workforce
Opportunities• New integrated devices• National eHealth Strategy • State led clinical +
infrastructure investment• Maturity of enterprise

Connectivity and mobility as standardMaintains context linked to the clinical application(s)
Access control with single sign-on & smart cardsProtection from threats & security vulnerabilities
Ability to rapidly deploy new capabilitiesReliable, controlled and safe
Clinical ComputingCapabilities:• Mobility to allow clinicians, nurses and
managers to access information from any device, any where
• Security that provides end-to-end defense-in-depth protection and management visibility and response to threats
• Identity services that enable pervasive single sign-on across new and existing systems, including smart card access
• Management, monitoring and virtualisation capabilities that support the complete lifecycle of physical and software assets
• Cloud & hosted service delivery options
From the budget papers:Queensland budget includes $87.1 million in 2009/2010 for clinical systems that will contribute to an EMR, plus a further $86 million for ICT supporting infrastructure
Vision for the Statewide Electronic Medical Record:
“ The eMR will deliver key functionality to the clinician’s desktop [...] coupled with critical Administration and Support systems”
The entire solution will be implemented via a Supporting Infrastructure, both hard (connectivity, data centres, security) and soft (standards, information architectures, information policy, business intelligence). “
