What is Provider Connect Australia?
Provider Connect Australia™ (also known as PCA™) is an initiative of the Australian Digital Health Agency to help healthcare provider organisations update their business information in a single source. This improves the accuracy of healthcare service and practitioner information, while reducing duplication and streamlining notifications.
Provider Connect Australia reduces duplication and streamlines notifications for general practice, Aboriginal Medical Services, private specialists, allied health professionals, Local Health Districts, community pharmacies and more.
Simply update your business information with Provider Connect Australia and it will automatically be sent to your nominated hospitals, pathology and radiology services, public service directories, secure messaging providers and more. This means only a single master copy of your organisation’s details needs to be maintained, with chosen business partners automatically updated whenever any details change. This saves you time, reduces human error, and removes the hassle of filling out multiple forms.
Security is a key design element of Provider Connect Australia and adheres to Australian Government security requirements.
Demonstration videos have been developed to support organisations to set up and register for Provider Connect Australia™. Find out more, watch videos and access other resources at the Australian Digital Health Agency’s PCA webpage.
