HealthOne NSW
aims to create a stronger and more efficient primary health care system by bringing together general practice, community health and other health care services. The health professionals involved in HealthOne NSW work together in multidisciplinary teams to provide prevention, early intervention and continuing, comprehensive primary health care. In order to provide this integrated care a patient’s health information will need to be shared.
