Australia Patient Solution Template

The Australian Patient Solution template is located on your installation media under components\addons\MDM\solutions. You can view information about how this solution is configured at http://java.net/downloads/javacaps-samples/Mural/Solutions/Solutions.html.

As the medicare card number, MedicareNo, is the major Australian identifier of healthcare patients, it is included as one of the keys for block-search definitions and matches on the main AUSPatient node in the template. The five matching keys for searches are:

The MedicareNo is comprised of four sections: eight digits (family identifier) + check digit + card issue number + optional card line number. However, only the first nine digits are important.

In the template, only the AUSPatient node contains mandatory variables. All the sub-nodes, for example Address and Contact, are optional.

Every effort has been made to make the template specific to the Australian healthcare industry.


Note - As the Australian tax file number (TFN) is not used in the healthcare industry, it is not included with the solution template.
