Achieving Connected Care through Data: A Clinical Perspective
Join Dr. Chandi Chandrasena, OntarioMD’s Chief Medical Officer and Alyssa Bryan, RN, MScN, Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) as they share their clinical insights and experiences in developing the health data standards to enable Connected Care and improve patient safety and ensure quality care.
These health data standards are bundled into the Pan-Canadian Health Data Content Framework that is foundational for Connected Care. It defines and standardizes the essential patient information needed in clinical care, resource management, population health and health system use.
Canada is now poised to advance its digital maturity and make interoperability a reality using a collaborative approach to inform, develop, and enable the work for data content and exchange standardization by including clinicians, jurisdictions, patient partners, Indigenous Peoples and vendors into the development process.
