Australia National Pathology Standards (First Edition 2027) 7.05: Healthcare records: collect, store and share patient information and pathology records in line with national and jurisdictional legislation including sharing-by-default requirements, create and maintain complete, accurate and current records aligned to patient consent, use standard information structures and terminology, manage records lawfully on amalgamation, merger or closure, and train the workforce in record-keeping requirements

What does 7.05 require?

Patient information and pathology records are gathered, held and shared within national and state or territory law, including the sharing-by-default rules for the national health record; records are created and kept complete, accurate and current and in line with the patient's consent; standard structures and terminology are used consistently; records are handled lawfully if laboratories merge, amalgamate or close; and staff are trained in what good record-keeping requires.
