My Health Record (MHR) is a national patient-controlled electronic health record in Australia linking hospital, general practitioner and community pharmacy records. The medication allergy/adverse reaction section should contain accurate information to aid prescribing.ObjectiveTo investigate the accuracy of documentation in MHR of confirmed medication-related anaphylaxis and SCAR and to determine barriers and facilitators to documentation.MethodsA retrospective cohort study of patients with medication-related anaphylaxis and SCAR, validated between January 2019 and June 2023. Medication allergy documentation in MHR was reviewed after patient consent to determine accuracy with medication and reaction type, against the assessment made by the hospital Adverse Drug Reaction Review Committee and/or allergy clinic consultation.ResultsForty-eight patients with anaphylaxis and 40 patients with SCAR (total 88) were included, involving 134 medications. Fourteen (15.9%) patients had their reactions documented accurately in MHR. When analysed per medication, 21 medications (15.7%) were documented accurately. Anaphylaxis, allergy clinic follow-up and life-threatening severity were factors significantly associated with a higher frequency of accurate allergy documentation in the MHR.ConclusionThe accuracy of medication allergy documentation for severe allergies in the MHR is low, representing a risk of harm from inadvertent re-exposure. This study identifies several system level issues and makes recommendations to improve patient safety.","PeriodicalId":93891,"journal":{"name":"Australian health review : a publication of the Australian Hospital Association","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143813210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Advance care planning (ACP) is an ongoing process of making decisions regarding future health care for patients. This process can include formal completion of an advance care directive (ACD), which is a legally binding document. ACP can improve patient outcomes and satisfaction, but rates are low across Australia. This study assessed the sociodemographic and clinical predictors of individuals engaging with ACP and ACDs using data from the 45 and Up Study cohort in New South Wales.MethodsA cross-sectional cohort study of 28,626 people responded to ACP-related questions in the wave 2 questionnaire of the Sax Institute's 45 and Up Study. ACP completion was recorded if people responded 'yes' to any of the three ACP questions, and ACD was recorded if they responded 'yes' to the ACD question. Poisson regression modelling was used to estimate the prevalence ratio and the 95%CI.ResultsA total of 28,626 people completed the ACP- and/or ACD-related questions, of whom 17,458 (61%) completed ACP and 3744 (13.1%) completed ACD. The predictors associated with an increased likelihood of ACP and ACD completion included having a will, advancing age, being female, having private health insurance, not currently working, and having one or more self-reported medical conditions. Predictors unique to increased overall ACP completion included having a university degree or higher, being married and having a health care concession card (Health Care Card). Being a carer increased ACD rates, whereas being married or in a de facto relationship decreased ACD completion.ConclusionsThese findings could inform interventions aimed at improving ACP uptake by identifying groups that engage less in ACP and provide a basis for future research.","PeriodicalId":93891,"journal":{"name":"Australian health review : a publication of the Australian Hospital Association","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143805098","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite progress in health system performance monitoring in Australia, slower progress has occurred for the older population accessing aged care services. With an aging population and increasing demands on aged care and healthcare systems, there is growing recognition of the need for more coordinated and integrated care across settings. It is not uncommon for older people accessing aged care to require a range of services administered by different organisations simultaneously (e.g. primary care, home care) and sequentially (e.g. hospitals, residential care). Aged care also represents an increasingly regulated sector, with significant investment in and growing recognition of the value of quality measurement. Accountability for care quality and safety is often shared among providers, with consequent challenges in attributing responsibility. Therefore, the development of a pragmatic national framework to support high-quality, person-centred care for the older population accessing aged care services across care settings is one opportunity for shared responsibility, care monitoring, and quality improvement activities that could lead to better outcomes for this population. The strategy for framework development proposed in this perspective has implications for aged care and healthcare providers, consumers, policy makers, regulators, and academics. Once implemented, this framework has the potential to drive consistent high-quality care to improve health outcomes and wellbeing among older people accessing aged care services.","PeriodicalId":93891,"journal":{"name":"Australian health review : a publication of the Australian Hospital Association","volume":"49 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143775135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aim to describe the trend of the ratio of MBS psychiatric video items for once-off assessments to follow-up sessions and examine the effect of telehealth consolidation. Methods Psychiatric once-off item to follow-up item ratios in face-to-face (F2F) and video modes were computed from state and territory-level monthly Medicare data (January 2016-December 2023). We performed a multilevel interrupted times series analysis (ITSA) of once-off video consultations with telehealth consolidation as the intervention, followed by subgroup analyses by age groups. Finally, in the young adult group (25-44years), we performed a multiple-group ITSA comparing video once-off to follow-up ratios between genders. Results The once-off to follow-up ratio for video items after telehealth consolidation greatly increased compared with F2F items, with rapid growth in once-off assessments. Sustained high video once-off assessment usage occurred in the youth (15-24years) and young adult (25-44years) groups, while other age groups showed declines following the initial rise. The male group showed a greater initial increase in the video once-off to follow-up ratio among young adults but the ratio continued to rise only in the female group. Conclusions The evolving trends of reimbursed telepsychiatry consultations require further examination given their potential implications concerning service quality, health equity, health attitudes and behaviours, and healthcare costs.","PeriodicalId":93891,"journal":{"name":"Australian health review : a publication of the Australian Hospital Association","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143756443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods A scoping review methodology was employed to map definitions and characteristics of VBHC from nine databases, including JBI EBP Database, Cochrane Reviews, Embase, Ovid MEDLINE(R), APA PsycINFO, and others, from inception until November 2023. The scoping review aimed to clarify existing concepts and identify gaps in VBHC definitions and frameworks across various geographical contexts. Additionally, qualitative data on VBHC were analysed from the included studies using a word cloud generated via an online tool and a word frequency table generated from Excel. This dual analysis informed the creation of a simplified, data-driven definition of VBHC along with its key characteristics. Results The word frequency analysis highlighted common themes, including 'care,' 'outcomes,' 'quality,' 'efficiency,' and 'cost.' Based on these frequently mentioned terms, a simplified definition of VBHC was formulated, focusing on patient-centred care that aims to improve health outcomes relative to costs. Comparisons with existing literature revealed that while the derived definition is more accessible and concise, it lacks the depth of the academic definitions, which emphasise strategic implementation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and nuanced measurement of outcomes. Conclusion This study provides a simplified, data-driven definition of VBHC that can facilitate understanding and implementation among practitioners and stakeholders. Integrating this accessible definition can bridge the gap between theory and practice, ultimately supporting better health outcomes and system sustainability.","PeriodicalId":93891,"journal":{"name":"Australian health review : a publication of the Australian Hospital Association","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143652610","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

CSs were defined as having dual clinical and research qualifications and work duties. Articles were screened at title, abstract, and full text level against inclusion and exclusion criteria, before extracting data and analysing the included articles. Results The search identified 5368 articles, with six eligible for inclusion. Articles were qualitative in nature (structured interviews or multiple case study reports) and had relatively few participants. The reported value or impacts included educating colleagues on research skills and processes, promoting evidence-based practice, fostering inter-institutional collaboration, and conducting clinically relevant research. No articles recommended a detailed suite of metrics as to how this value or impact could be measured.
