Number of people opted out of My Health Record as at October 2018
Dear Australian Digital Health Agency,
I'd like to know how many people have opted out of My Health Record. Can you please send me the latest document that shows the number of people that have opted out of My Health Record?
Please treat this as a request for administrative access. If for some reason the request cannot be dealt with in this way, please treat it as a formal application under the Freedom of Information Act.
Cheers,
