Task force makes interoperability recommendations – Can Health
November 20, 2024
OTTAWA – The Digital Health Interoperability Task Force released its recommendation report which identifies and addresses systemic barriers to the implementation of interoperable digital health solutions, including five core recommendations to improve adoption and use.
In March 2024, the Canadian Medical Association (CMA), Canada Health Infoway (Infoway), the College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC) and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (Royal College) united forces to create the Task Force, comprised of physician health system leaders and a nursing representative from across the country.
“The advancement of Connected Care, or interoperability, means improving the ability of different digital health systems to communicate, exchange, and use personal health data seamlessly and securely. This in turn will help healthcare providers access the right information at the right time, supporting better coordination of care and more informed decision-making, while reducing administrative burden” said Dr. Rashaad Bhyat (pictured left), task force co-chair and senior clinician leader, Canada Health Infoway.
