👉A recent report by the Public Policy Forum stresses the urgent need for Canada to transition its health records to a digital format accessible to all care team members by 2028. Criticizing the outdated handling of records, the report highlights the prevalence of fax machines and the consequent loss of information and referrals. Professionals like Dr. Kashif Pirzada lament the reliance on fax for specialist consults, stressing its inefficiency and potential for missed care opportunities. Despite some individual efforts towards electronic records, the system remains antiquated, hindering efficient communication and care delivery. Advocates emphasize the benefits of digitalization, including improved patient-physician relationships and reduced wait times. While federal funding is available for modernization, provincial uptake varies, with only a few provinces onboard so far. The overhaul is seen as crucial for maintaining staff and enhancing patient care nationwide.✅ . 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚 𝐕𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞, 𝐎𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨'𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭.
