Summary
This CRE develops a new solutions-based approach to overuse of unnecessary, ineffective healthcare. Overuse causes harm and diverts resources from areas of need. We will produce new solutions to address four drivers of overuse. We will: build health literacy in patients, communities and health professionals; respond to changing screening and diagnostic technology; address financial drivers; and change clinical practices, to minimise harm and waste, achieving more sustainable healthcare for all.
E-health can improve the quality, safety and effectiveness of health services. The Centre for Research Excellence in Informatics and E-health will support the design, evaluation and use of e-health systems in 3 areas: monitoring e-health safety using incident monitoring, evaluating consumer e-health safety, and developing next generation evidence-based support tools.
