DESCRIPTION:What is an HPI-I and why do allied health professionals need one? Secure digital connection starts with your individual Healthcare Provider Identifier (HPI-I). In this practical webinar, AHPA is joined by representatives from Services Australia and Ahpra to explain what HPI identifiers are, why they matter, and how allied health professionals and organisations can obtain and use them correctly. Allied health professionals require an HPI-I to: Connect to My Health Record Use secure messaging Participate in Provider Connect Australia Share consumer health information safely and securely If you work within an organisation, your HPI-I connects with your organisation’s Healthcare Provider Identifier – Organisation (HPI-O). Both are essential components of digital connection. This webinar explains how it all fits together. Who should attend: Allied health professionals  Private practice owners Practice managers Allied health service delivery organisations This session is particularly relevant for private practices seeking to connect with national digital health systems for the first time. Learning outcomes By the end of this webinar, participants will: Understand what an HPI-I is and how it functions Know why an HPI-I is required for secure information sharing Identify the correct pathway to obtain an HPI-I Understand how their organisation obtains and uses an HPI-O Know where to access detailed guidance and support Understand how HPI identifiers enable participation in national digital health products Why this matters for allied health Digital health is no longer optional infrastructure. It underpins how information is shared, how care is coordinated, and increasingly how services are funded. Without an HPI-I and HPI-O in place, allied health professionals and practices cannot securely connect to national digital systems. Understanding and implementing these identifiers ensures your practice is prepared to participate in a connected, secure and interoperable health system.
