À propos de la présentation (en anglais seulement)

Canada Health Infoway is a not-for-profit organization that was created in a collaborative effort by the federal, provincial and territorial governments in 2001 to accelerate the development and adoption of Electronic Health Records in Canada. One of its key functions was to provide the Blueprint and standards guiding the development of Electronic Health Records across 14 federal, provincial and territorial governments. This presentation will describe the challenges of implementing common solutions in a federated model and how Infoway has worked with these governments who are responsible for delivery of health care in Canada in implementing standardized solutions while respecting the individual priorities of each government. Infoway is unique in the world and the presentation will document the progress made over the last 10 years as well as look to the future on the next logical steps in applying technology to improving health care outcomes for Canadians.
