Murrumbidgee HealthPathways
Murrumbidgee HealthPathways is a web-based portal with condition-specific ‘pathways'. Each pathway supports clinicians with assessment, management and local referral information. The HealthPathways site is designed to be used at point of care primarily by general practitioners but is also available to hospital specialists, nurses and other health professionals across Murrumbidgee. The secure portal is not for use by patients, however there are appropriate local resources for GPs to provide to patients.
Who is involved?
Murrumbidgee HealthPathways is a partnership between Murrumbidgee Local Health District and Murrumbidgee Primary Health Network. This partnership has established a team to develop and implement Murrumbidgee HealthPathways. The HealthPathways team includes GP Clinical Editors, Clinical Coordinators and a Clinical Lead.
Clinical Working Groups (CWGs) consisting of specialists, GPs, allied health and key stakeholders, are established to identify issues affecting patient care in a particular service area. They propose solutions to issues identified, and while CWGs do not write or sign off on pathways, they will review or comment on them. If you are interested in getting involved please email the HealthPathways team healthpathways@mphn.org.au.
