The HEART Party (Health, Environment, Accountability, Rights, Transparency) is an Australian political party. It was founded in August 2023 as a result of a merger of the Health Australia Party (HAP) and Informed Medical Options Party (IMOP).
The party announced its formation in a Facebook video, with both HAP and IMOP saying the decision to merge was made due to their similar policies. However, HAP withdrew from HEART on 10 October, a week after it was registered with the Australian Electoral Commission.
The "HEART" acronym was first used by IMOP at the 2023 New South Wales state election.
HEART was deregistered by the Electoral Commission of Queensland on 25 January 2024.
