Project Brief
In partnership with the Department of Health and Ageing (DOHA) and the National eHealth Transition Authority (NeHTA), Deloitte Digital has realised the future of online health care. With iOS and Android support, smartphone users across the country can access to the My Child’s eHealth Record app and take advantage of features based on native phone functions such as, calendar integration for scheduling important health checks and a child’s immunisation records).
Project Need
The current paper based child growth chart and immunisation records in each jurisdiction (in NSW known as the Blue Book) have been an integral part of the parent, child, and clinician relationship for many years; monitoring a child’s growth and development milestones. Now, for the first time ever, a digital solution has been developed for the entire nation. Using my.gov.au credentials, parents can log into the My Child’s eHealth Record app and make growth chart observations, fill out pre-health check questionnaires, view immunisation schedules and completed immunisations for their children.
User Experience
From the first time the user logs on – all that is needed to keep records on their child’s growth and development is a few taps away. The child dashboard is the central hub of the app – designed to display all the basic information about a child. From there, users can navigate to important reminders, view information articles relevant to their child’s age and state, complete relevant development questionnaires, schedule health check appointments, and so much more. The app retains a familiar navigation framework so parents will feel right at home as they explore the possibilities of the My Child’s eHealth Record app.
Project Marketing
This is a government initiative, so the campaign is tied around existing government policies. As this is the mobile channel for an existing initiative – the personally controlled electronic health record, the current marketing strategy is closely tied to that record.
