Happy NY Nathan. My understanding is that the Northland DHB documents were sent via HealthLink with a copy to the GP (long standing usual process) but also a copy sent to Manage My Health (new process). Prior to the project in Northland last year, the transfer of care documents/outpatient letters weren’t available to Manage My Health because they couldn’t be extracted from the practice, and this remains the case and the documents are copies given to Manage My Health.
As Northland practices we still haven’t been given clear and transparent communications about where the hack occurred, but I think it’s not from GP data, it’s been due to security flaws in the Manage My Health data. We remain unable to talk to our patients about what has happened and how they may be impacted. We are now Day 10 post-hack. This is a shambles.
