A digitally enabled health workforce for Australia.

Australia has world-class education for healthcare professionals and is recognised for its strength in digital health research but is yet to fill some important gaps in training healthcare professionals in the safe implementation and use of digital technologies. In this case study, we bring together the perspectives of clinicians, health system leaders, and academics to guide efforts in establishing a digitally enabled workforce in Australia. Building on published evidence, our recommendations include leveraging on recent momentum, building strong partnerships with healthcare organisations, academia, and the digital health industry, and ultimately an expansion of a digitally enabled clinical informatics and digital health workforce.
