The Digital Health Blueprint and Action Plan 2023–2033

The Digital Health Blueprint 2023–2033 outlines the Australian Government’s ten-year vision for the role digital health capabilities will continue to play in delivering a more person-centred, connected, and sustainable health system for Australians. Our vision for digital health in Australia is: “trusted, timely and accessible use of digital and data underpins a personalised and connected health and wellbeing experience for all Australians”. 

Establishing the Blueprint, and its accompanying Action Plan, is a major step towards unifying and prioritising the Australian Government’s substantial, long-term investment in digital health, guiding its application to support long-term health reform priorities. Our strategic priorities aim to help Australians access and manage their health information, and strengthen digital health foundations through policy, legislation and standards that are proactive and long-lasting. These strategic priorities will also support a learning health system by strengthening Australians trust in data and its appropriate sharing and reuse to deliver healthcare improvements and encourage innovation. 

The Blueprint Action Plan highlights the initiatives the Australian Government is investing in to meet the target outcomes identified in the Blueprint and outlines key delivery partners and progress. The Action Plan will be refreshed regularly to outline progress and to include new digital and data investments over time.
