Emergency department summaries secure messaging rollout – Royal Perth, Perth Children’s and Peel Hospitals

Royal Perth, Perth Children’s and Peel Hospital emergency departments (EDs) are scheduled to begin secure messaging of ED discharge summaries on Wednesday 25 May 2025.

During the first few hours of the transition, some summaries may be duplicated and sent by secure messaging and fax. Printed summaries will continue to be given to patients and faxed to practices not registered for secure messaging.

To update your secure messaging details or current GP list, or to register to receive public hospital discharge and outpatient summaries by secure messaging, contact the tertiary hospital your adult patients most commonly attend:

Once updated, your new practice contact details will be available to other public hospitals in WA excluding some public-private hospitals which use different systems.
