Provider Connect Australia™(PCA™) is an Australian Digital Health Agency initiative to help healthcare providers update their business information in a single place.
Gippsland PHN have partnered with Provider Connect AustraliaTM (PCATM) to help transform data accuracy and increase digital health interoperability across the Australian healthcare ecosystem.
A growing number of healthcare providers and business partners are using the free PCA™ service to streamline their relationships and reduce their admin burden.
Watch this short video for a quick overview of how PCA™ works.
The fastest way for healthcare providers to keep business partners and patients up-to-date with important business changes – like opening hours, contact information and healthcare services – is by updating their details through PCA™.
Once registered with PCA™, providers can choose to automatically send these important business updates to all their business partners, eliminating the need to manually update multiple platforms when their details change.
Healthcare providers who register in PCATM can publish their details directly to their PHN, and the National Health Services Directory’s Service Finder on the same day, making it easier for patients to find you.
A PRODA account is required to register. Register for PRODA if needed.
Once logged in to PRODA, simply go to the ‘PCA Tile’ and register.

A step-by-step guide to Getting started with PCA is available.
Healthcare Providers can also get support to register for PCA by calling the Agency’s Digital Adoption Support team on (02) 6223 0741 option 3.

If your organisation relies on up-to-date information from health providers, PCA™ can streamline your provider registration process. Your organisation can receive automatic updates from the healthcare provider organisations you support and reduce or eliminate the potential for errors from manually transcribing information.
