JAFA is delighted to announce the release of Australia’s first National Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) HealthPathway, developed by Murrumbidgee Primary Health Network and launched in May 2026.

As you would be aware, HealthPathways is an online clinical guidance and referral platform used by GPs and primary healthcare clinicians to support localised, evidence based decision making and referral pathways. The new National JIA HealthPathway has been designed for adoption by Primary Health Networks across Australia, supporting consistent assessment, referral, and management of JIA in primary care settings.

Registered healthcare professionals in Australia can apply for access to HealthPathways here: https://mphn.org.au/health-pathways
