Manage My Health Record documents

The My Health Record home screen allows you to view and manage documents that have been uploaded to a patient's shared My Health Record. From here you can also download documents to the patient's record in Bp Premier. The patient must be registered with My Health Record.

NOTE  GPs can only upload Shared Health Summaries and Event Summaries to My Health Record. Pathology or radiology clinics and hospitals can upload other document types such as reports and discharge summaries.

  2. The home screen shows all uploaded documents, such as donor registrations, discharge summaries, referrals, specialist correspondence, and prescriptions. This screen will only list up to 1000 My Health Record documents. If your search returns more than 1000 documents, Bp Premier will prompt you to use the filters to reduce the number of documents returned.

  3. Click View Latest Shared Health Summary to open the Shared Health Summary including the most recent changes. If this button is not enabled, the patient has no Shared Health Summary uploaded yet.
  4. Use the Filters on the left hand side to change the age and type of documents shown:
    • Reset Filter — Resets filter values to default.
    • From / To — Include documents uploaded during the date range.
    • Document Type — Limit documents shown to the selected type.
    • Saved Status — Show only saved, unsaved, or both.
    • Exclude... — Don’t show documents of the selected type.
  5. Click Update to apply filter settings to the list of documents.
  6. Click on a column heading to sort the list by that column. ‘/\‘ or ‘\/’ in a column header indicates whether the list is sorted in ascending or descending order by that column.

Document Saved status

A status of ‘Saved’ in the Saved column of the My Health Record home screen indicates that a document has been downloaded and stored in a patient record.

Documents saved from My Health Record to a patient record cannot be moved to another patient record. However, you can move documents to Correspondence Out or Investigations in the same patient record.
