Queensland passes laws to enable real-time prescription monitoring

Written by Pulse+IT| | Australian eHealth

The Queensland Parliament has passed new laws today that update regulations covering medicines and therapeutic goods to allow for the introduction of a real-time prescription monitoring system.

Like the other states and territories, Queensland has had access to a licence for a software solution called ERRCD since 2012, but has not made the necessary changes to poisons regulations until now.
