About the Grampians Health & St Vincent's Hospital Melbourne EMR Program

Grampians Health (GH) and St Vincent's Hospital Melbourne (SVHM) are working together to explore the implementation of a shared Electronic Medical Record (EMR) as part of their digital transformation journey. This program presents an exciting opportunity to deliver the first Victorian EMR that connects patient care records across rural, regional and metropolitan health services.  

This EMR program aims to deliver a comprehensive digital patient record across ambulatory, inpatient and community services across both organisations.

About the Role

In order to achieve our vision of a single patient record, GH and SVHM will be recruiting an EMR program team to design, build and implement our EMR. This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated individual to be part of a large-scale transformational program across two large health services.

• Work in collaboration with health service integration teams to determine current integration methods and integration engine capabilities;

• Develop an integration architecture that will support the development of a highly interoperable environment; and

Classifications for this position will be a HS7 ($122k- $140k per annum based on experience, excluding super).
