NEHTA (National E-Health Transition Authority)

The National E-Health Transition Authority (NEHTA) was an Australian organization established to improve healthcare through digital technologies. Its goal was to create a secure and efficient electronic health system, enabling better communication between healthcare providers and patients. NEHTA worked on developing national standards and frameworks for health information sharing, electronic health records, and other e-health initiatives. Though it ceased operations in 2015, its work laid the foundation for ongoing digital health strategies in Australia, promoting safer and more coordinated patient care across the healthcare system.
