Getting Started
Before you get started, please ensure:
- Your practice meets the requirements for running the Precedence Connector. See technical requirements for details.
- You have an unrestricted Windows account that allows you to install and configure the Precedence Connector on the server or terminal server where applicable
A Bit of Background
MediTracker runs as an extension from the Precedence Connector. The Precedence Connector is linked to your practice software to create a pathway for health record summaries to be uploaded to MediTracker as requested by users.
This guide includes installation instructions for different network environments. Please follow the instructions that best suit your environment.
It is recommended that MediTracker is installed or configured where your practice software is installed eg. on the server.
MediTracker must only be installed or configured once via the Precedence Connector. To ensure MediTracker remains connected, please install or configure MediTracker on a workstation or server that remains on 24/7.
Security
MediTracker runs at 15 minute intervals to check for new app user requests.
MediTracker only uploads a health record summary where:
Your practice has installed or configured MediTracker via the Precedence Connector and;
- A user, who has registered for MediTracker through the mobile app, selects your GP practice to request to receive their health record summary from and;
- The registration details of the user match the details in your practice software (name, date of birth, Medicare number and mobile number).
