## 1800MEDICARE (was my health) Reviews in Australia

### *---- "Not yet perfect"
The number of available repeats left on each script is not updating
-- Michael and Vicki, 2024-12-30

### ***-- "Missing data"
The app is easy to navigate but I have been registered since this started. Recent surgeries and appointments are missing. Disappointing that not all data is added.
-- Ons70, 2024-12-29

### **--- "Not the best thig"
Confusing and difficult to find things, help sends you on a wild goose chase.
-- JudithC, 2024-12-28

### **--- "Hijacked"
I couldn&#039;t fill my script today at the chemist. When I clicked my e-script in Messages, instead of opening the token in Safari it opened this app. No barcode to scan. The pharmacist didn&#039;t know what was going on. I didn&#039;t authorise this app to change the way my phone works. Rude. Predatory. Dishonest behaviour.
-- zhaogary, 2024-12-27

### *---- "Doesn’t seem to work any more"
The app won’t open on my iPhone any more. The site is still accessible via the web.
-- Devo31, 2024-12-18

### ***** "Love the new features"
I am using the app to manage electronic prescriptions for me and my two children - it’s much better than trying to keep track of text messages and paper repeats! It’s very easy to use and has a nice design. I can also see my kids my health record information like scan results and the medications that have been dispensed which makes it easier to manage their care. Highly recommend.
-- Silvercoal, 2024-12-18

### *---- "Needs more functionality"
A proper patient portal should have far more communication and functionality than this. The folks who made this need to collaborate with people in the field!
-- Davith Thomas - TOGINV, 2024-12-13

### *---- "Stupid to set up!"
This app is so freaking difficult to set up! Why aren’t things easier especially since my gov and my health are linked! You would think the information would just transfer.  Plus there’s no way to edit the incorrect information.  Poorly designed!
-- Sumachy, 2024-12-10

### ****- "Health App"
This app is not opening the files.
I press on bloodtest, nothing happens, nothing opens. It seems to be frozen.
 New Review 
I went back today 4,12. and After some fideles , i found the latent Health Results. No notes from and Health Provider when all this started until last year……..
Bit of a typical government idea, sounds good and helpful….but nothing is working…sounds familiar?
-- somjas, 2024-12-04

### *---- "Organ Donation alone is incorrect !!"
Organ and tissue donation or just tissue donation is correct
-- OnlyWhenOffended, 2024-12-04
