Division 1 Application for registration

     5.                      Application for registration
     For the purposes of paragraph 15(f) of the Act, the System Operator may permit healthcare recipients to apply to register for a My Health Record through assisted registration.

Division 2 Undertaking assisted registration

6.                      Eligibility to undertake assisted registration
For the purposes of paragraph 15(f) and subsections 109(3) and (5) of the Act, assisted registration of a healthcare recipient may be undertaken only by an employee of a registered healthcare provider organisation who is authorised by that organisation for that purpose.
           Note: Employee has the same meaning as in section 5 of the Act. It includes: (a) an individual who provides services for the entity under a contract for services; and (b) an individual whose services are made available to the entity (including those services made free of charge).

           (b)                    be satisfied that the healthcare recipient is the person whose identity is to be asserted to the System Operator.
           Note:  Giving false or misleading information to the System Operator is a serious offence under section 137 of the Criminal Code Act 1995.

8.                                                                Declaration to support a healthcare recipient's assertion of parental responsibility
