Health PEI would like to express our deepest sympathies for the passing of Minister Mark McLane. Minister McLane was a kind, thoughtful and compassionate leader who spent every day doing his best to improve the health care system for Islanders.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues. Mark McLane will be profoundly missed and his impact on Island health care will continue for years to come.

🩺✨ Ever wondered what an AI scribe does?

AI scribes are digital tools that help document your healthcare visit so your provider can focus more on you.

Here’s how they work:
📌 They create a temporary audio recording during your appointment and generate a draft summary of the medically relevant details.
📌 Your provider reviews and edits every note before anything is added to your medical record.
📌 You’re always in control, your provider will ask for consent first, and saying no won’t affect your care.
📌 Some PEI providers are now participating in a national AI Scribe pilot project led by Canada Health Infoway to explore how this tool can reduce administrative burden and support better patient care.
