The Australian Software That Helped Transform Healthcare Worldwide
TrakHealth Pty Ltd | Consensus Software Award Winner 2006
When TrakHealth Pty Ltd received a Consensus Software Award in 2006, healthcare providers around the world were facing an increasingly complex challenge.
Hospitals needed better ways to manage patient information, coordinate clinical care and connect fragmented healthcare systems, yet many organisations were still relying on disconnected software and paper-based processes.
TrakHealth believed there was a better way.
Its award-winning TrakCare platform was designed to bring clinical and administrative information together within a single integrated electronic patient record, helping healthcare organisations improve efficiency, enhance patient care and support better clinical decision-making.
The Consensus Software Awards recognised TrakHealth for its innovation, technical excellence and outstanding commercial potential.
It was a solution developed to improve one of society's most important services.
As healthcare systems increasingly embraced digital transformation, TrakCare established itself as an innovative enterprise healthcare platform capable of supporting hospitals, health networks and clinicians with modern patient information management.
Its success soon attracted the attention of one of the world's leading healthcare technology companies.
In May 2007, InterSystems Corporation acquired TrakHealth, bringing the Australian-developed TrakCare platform into its global healthcare software portfolio.
At the time of the acquisition, TrakHealth employed approximately 100 people and generated annual revenue of around A$8.8 million, demonstrating the commercial success achieved in just a few years.
The acquisition provided TrakCare with the global resources, investment and international customer network needed to accelerate its growth and expand into healthcare systems around the world.
Nearly two decades later, InterSystems TrakCare remains one of the company's flagship healthcare information systems, supporting hospitals, health services and clinicians across dozens of countries.
Today, millions of patients benefit from healthcare organisations using TrakCare to manage electronic medical records, clinical workflows, patient administration and integrated care—proof that Australian innovation can deliver lasting impact on a global scale.
For Consensus, TrakHealth represents exactly the type of company the Awards were established to identify.
Long before it became part of one of the world's leading healthcare technology organisations, Consensus recognised the innovation, engineering capability and commercial potential behind TrakCare.
Its journey demonstrates that Australian software doesn't just create successful businesses.
It creates technology that improves lives.
