โฐ December 10, 2026 Deadline

Is your clinic AI-compliant
before 10 December 2026?

Australian privacy law changed. AHPRA has published clear obligations. The TGA clarified AI scribe rules in January 2026. The two-year grace period ends in December โ€” and most clinic owners don't know what they're on the hook for.

10 compliance items.
One page. Print it and tick it off.

This isn't a 40-page legal document. It's the checklist a clinic owner can actually use โ€” sourced from AHPRA guidance, the Privacy Act's new automated decision-making obligations (APP 1.7), and the TGA's January 2026 AI scribe clarification.

Why this matters now

Three regulators. One deadline. Most clinic owners haven't started.

This isn't theoretical. The OAIC started an active compliance sweep of privacy policies in early 2026. AHPRA updated AI guidance in 2024 and has ongoing case studies. The TGA is actively reviewing AI scribes for medical device classification.

๐Ÿ“‹
AHPRA โ€” clear obligations on clinical accountability, informed consent, and professional indemnity. These apply now.
๐Ÿ›
Privacy Act (APP 1.7) โ€” automated decision-making disclosure mandatory by 10 December 2026. The OAIC is already running compliance sweeps.
๐Ÿ”ฌ
TGA (January 2026) โ€” clarified when AI scribes become regulated medical devices. If yours suggests diagnoses or treatments, it may already be in scope.

Why Ted?

I'm a podiatrist and clinic builder โ€” not a tech company, not a compliance firm. I built and sold specialist podiatry clinics, taught internationally, and have spent the last two years coaching allied health owners through AI implementation.

This checklist is what I share with every clinic owner I work with before we start. Not because compliance is exciting โ€” but because not knowing is a risk you don't need to carry.

The checklist is free. No strings. If you want to go further, the Clinical Intelligence Program is where that work happens.

Want to go further?

Compliance is the floor. Implementation is where the real work happens.

Knowing your obligations is step one. Actually building AI systems that work in a real clinic โ€” in the right order, without breaking what's already working โ€” that's what the Clinical Intelligence Program is built for.

Eight weeks. Three AI systems. One clinic that runs without you at the centre of everything.
