My Health Record gives patients immediate access to flu test results

On 24 June a change was made to My Health Record to give patients faster access to common respiratory infection test reports, such as influenza. 

Patients who have these tests processed by a pathology lab that uploads to My Health Record can now see the reports as soon as they are uploaded. 

Patients can find the reports in their Pathology Report screen. They are also available as a quick link from the COVID-19 dashboard under a renamed section Recent COVID-19 and respiratory tests.
