If your pharmacy chooses to provide this service, you warrant that you have checked the individual’s identity and obtained their consent to being registered and having their health information uploaded to their My Health Record. Please read the information for healthcare providers at https://myhealthrecord.gov.au before you begin assisting patients to register.
