Haresh Singaraju on Health Information Bill

07:57 Min

The Health Information Bill matters - to the patient hoping the next doctor knows what the last one did, to the clinician wanting to do the right thing but uncertain of the rules, and to the small practice owner worried about compliance, said NMP Haresh Singaraju. Speaking in parliament on Monday (Jan 12), he stressed the need to build trust. He also sought clarification on several aspects of the bill. He wanted to know if the government is committed to facilitating and supporting the development of clear and practical guidance on what constitutes reasonable access, and if there would be dedicated and sustained support for smaller practices.
