From: Corin
Dear Health New Zealand,
I am seeking information relating to the decision to register or participate in the Emergency Q app for the Middlemore Hospital Emergency Department.
In particular, I am looking for:
- A business case, proposal, briefing, report, or assessment prepared in relation to Emergency Q.
- Contracts, memoranda of understanding, agreements, or terms of engagement with Emergency Q.
- Information regarding costs, payments, funding arrangements, or financial commitments associated with Emergency Q.
- Privacy impact assessments, data-sharing agreements, or documentation describing the patient information pathway, including what data is collected, stored, shared, or accessed through the app, and how this is done.
- Internal correspondence (including emails and meeting minutes) discussing the consideration, approval, or implementation of Emergency Q.
- The date the decision was made to proceed with registration and the decision-maker(s) involved.
Yours faithfully,
Corin
