This year’s theme ‘Connect & Collaborate – Transforming Data into Better Care’, aligned closely with our purpose of using evidence to make fair and equitable decisions that promote better value and higher quality care services across Australia.
We were pleased to support the event as a Platinum Partner, share developments in our work through a presentation, and to engage with attendees throughout the event and at our exhibition booth.
Anne Elsworthy, Director, Acute Care Classifications, presented ‘The Pathway to ICD-11: Progress, Priorities and Next Steps’. The presentation covered progress from 2024 to 2026 on transition planning, stakeholder engagement, and building the evidence base to inform the timing and requirements for safely implementing ICD-11 as the replacement for ICD-10-AM in Australia.
Other highlights across the 3 days included presentations and workshops exploring digital health, clinical coding and documentation improvement, artificial intelligence, data governance, privacy and security, and workforce development.
Beyond the conference sessions, a gala dinner provided an opportunity for the health information management community to connect and network.
