I'm not really sure what you mean regarding always going to the same DAME. Each medical is essentially a new one, unless CASA have put additional requirements on for the renewal. If they have, they send a letter to you (the pilot) at your registered address (and to the DAME) with the additional requirements for the following year. Otherwise, the requirements are purely age-related as listed on the table on the website, or relate to the CRI that the DAME has to calculate from the information thaey collect at the medical (Blood pressure, smoking status, etc). The only time additional requirements are required are if your medical status has changed, and more information is needed.
I'm pretty sure that DAMEs using the electronic system can get at your previous information, but in most cases they don't need it anyway.
