Provides the health industry with a specific Standard for Health Care Provider Identification for clinical and administrative data management purposes which promotes uniformly good practice in identifying individual providers and recording identifying data; this will assist significantly in ensuring that records relating to each individual provider will be associated with that individual or organization and no other.

Scope

This Standard is a voluntary code of practice. It provides a framework for improving the positive identification of health care providers.
This Standard applies in respect of all providers of health care services to the Australian health care system. It defines demographic and other identifying data elements suited to capture and use for identification in health care settings and provides guidance on their application. It also makes recommendations about the nature and form of health care provider identifiers.

Accordingly this Standard includes only the minimum dataset required for unambiguous identification. It is recognized that specific applications such as provider directories or service locators will require additional data to fulfil their purposes. The Standard provides a generic set of identifying information which is application independent.
