Australian Digital Health Agency
The Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA) is the Australian Government statutory agency responsible for national digital health infrastructure and standards. It operates and stewards My Health Record (the national shared health record), the Healthcare Identifiers (HI) Service, the National Authentication Service for Health (NASH) PKI, electronic prescribing, and the National Clinical Terminology Service (NCTS). ADHA publishes machine-readable APIs for connecting conformant clinical software to these national systems, centred on HL7 FHIR (R4) alongside legacy HL7 CDA document exchange. Its developer surface spans the My Health Record FHIR Gateway (B2B and Mobile), the NCTS FHIR terminology server and Atom syndication feed (SNOMED CT-AU, AMT, LOINC), and conformance profiles for electronic prescribing. Home market is Australia. Authentication to the national record systems uses NASH SHA-2 PKI certificates (mutual TLS), while the NCTS terminology server uses SMART-on-FHIR OAuth2. Production onboarding is gated behind registration, conformance testing, and PKI issuance; ADHA aligns to the AU Base / AU Core FHIR implementation guides stewarded through HL7 Australia and the Sparked national FHIR accelerator.
More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.
API Evangelist profiles Australian Digital Health Agency the way a machine reads it — 10 machine-readable artifacts across 6 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Australian Digital Health Agency scores 29.0/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 46/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.
How we profile Australian Digital Health Agency
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Australian Digital Health Agency. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 6
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

MCP Servers 1
Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

MCP SERVERSecurity Posture 2
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Scopes 1
OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.
