Using AI in your healthcare practice? Make sure you understand the legal risks.

AI is rapidly changing healthcare - from clinical scribes and patient communications to practice administration and diagnostic support. But with greater opportunity comes important privacy, consent, cybersecurity and compliance obligations.

⚠️ Key deadline approaching: From 10 December 2026, organisations subject to the Privacy Act that use personal information in certain automated decision-making processes will have new requirements to disclose information about this use in their privacy policies.

Our latest Fact Sheet, ‘AI in Healthcare: Managing Privacy, Legal & Compliance Risks,’ outlines the key considerations healthcare professionals and practices should understand when using AI - and the practical steps they can take to manage risk.

🩺 What does it take to build and grow a successful private practice?

That was the focus of Practice Masterclass LIVE in Brisbane, an exclusive event hosted by Magentus and Prescribe Practice Management earlier this month.

Our Managing Director Zac Herps was invited to share his legal expertise with medical specialists and practice managers, alongside select industry experts across finance, technology and practice management.

⚖️ Zac focused on the key legal foundations practices need to get right - helping medical professionals protect their practice, manage risk and plan confidently for growth.

A valuable opportunity to bring together specialist expertise and practical advice to help private practices thrive.

It’s been a busy event period for our team, with our Directors and Lawyers being called on to share their legal knowledge and practical insights at conferences across the country. 🎤⚖️

Earlier this month, our Managing Director Zac Herps presented at the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS) Queensland State Conference, joining surgeons and industry leaders to tackle the key issues impacting private practice. 🩺

Zac shared practical insights on practice growth and key legal matters surgeons need to be aware of when running a private practice, including emerging risks and compliance issues that can easily be overlooked.

As a long-term professional partner of RACS, it was another great opportunity for Zac to connect with existing clients, meet new faces and continue supporting surgeons with the business and legal challenges behind successful private practice.

Thanks to the RACS Queensland team for another great event!

⚖️ Estate planning in mining: when life changes, has your plan changed with it?

Separation, divorce, a new relationship and growing wealth can significantly change what you need from your estate plan - but Wills, superannuation nominations and trust structures don’t always keep pace.

In his latest article with Resources Unearthed, our Director Robert Lamb explores the hidden succession risks for mining and resources professionals with blended families, and why reviewing your arrangements as life and wealth evolve is so important.

⚠️ LEGAL ALERT | Contractor or employee?

If your business or practice engages independent contractors, do your agreements match how the relationship actually works in practice?

A recent Fair Work Commission decision involving a registered psychologist provides an important reminder: some direction or oversight does not automatically make a contractor an employee - but the overall working relationship matters.

Getting the arrangement right from the outset can help reduce uncertainty and the risk of costly disputes later.
