A ministerial review of health services based in Australia, Victoria have decided that the past practices of centralised shared services should be moved away from, instead promoting a move to empowering local health boards.
Health boards will now be in charge and accountable for decisions relating to all IT and communications technology.
The ministerial review follows a prolonged period of setbacks and problems spanning a decade from the implementation of a state-wide shared services strategy for IT services.
The Victorian Minister for Health David Davis called that past strategy wasteful and misguided one-sided fits all strategy. The review added that the past strategy had the effect of forcing small health services into purchasing services that provided unnecessary functionality.
