My Health Record (myHR)

Clinicians in the practice may have access to the My Health Records (myHR) of their patients, if the patient (or their parent/guardian) has not already opted out of having a My Health Record.

Your doctor may therefore view and/or upload to the patient’s My Health Record, unless you ask them not to.

The patient or parent/guardian may:

  • Ask the doctor not to upload documents/other information to the My Health Record.

  • Ask the doctor to delete something they previously uploaded.

  • Set their own privacy and security controls on the My Health Record through myGov. This may include setting a security code to prevent a doctor accessing the myHR unless you provide the code (unless it is an emergency situation).

  • Delete documents/records from the myHR through MyGov.

Parents can manage their child’s myHR until their child turns 14, at which point their access to their child’s record will be removed. Children aged 14-17 can specially nominate their parents to have access to their myHR if they wish.
