Answer

I am advised that on 4 November 2020, as part of due diligence, a web application scan of the Beating the Blues website was completed by the Ministry of Health prior to the contract being novated to Manage My Health. I am also advised that the Manage My Health patient portal was the subject of a security review initiated by the Ministry of Health that was completed on 1 April 2019.
