Assessment process

Before being accepted as an Information Partner, leading Australian health organisations are assessed for the clinical quality and governance processes of their online resources. The steps in the process are outlined below.

Step 1: Assessment

Please complete and return the Information Partner Assessment form you received from one of our Partner Managers. It evaluates your content creation and approval processes to ensure our users that Information Partner content meets our quality assurance criteria.

Step 2: Agreement

Once approved as an Information Partner, we ask you to formalise the partnership by signing our Information Partnership Agreement, allowing us to link to your resources.

Step 3: Profile and content

We request a description of your organisation, including your vision and mission, and information about how you support Australian healthcare consumers. We also ask for your logo so we can create your profile and a link to it from our Information Partners page.

Please note:

If you have an app or online program, please complete and return the app/online program assessment form to your partner manager.

Complete the form to the best of your ability and we will come back to you if we require more information.
