services. Australian Healthcare IT sector comprises healthcare organizations
(hospitals, nursing homes, diagnostic centers, dental hospitals, clinics,
etc.), persons (doctors, dentists, nurses, and other caregivers), and health
insurance providers. The Australian Healthcare IT market has been shifting
