Canada Health Infoway

Canada Health Infoway Integrating digital health into the health care experience.

Canada Health Infoway (Infoway) is a not-for-profit organization that was created in a collaborative effort by the federal, provincial and territorial governments in 2001. Infoway helps to improve the health of Canadians by working with partners to accelerate the development, adoption and effective use of digital health across Canada. Through our investments, we help deliver better quality and access to care through a more efficient delivery of health services for patients and clinicians. Our social media content provides Canadians with information about the benefits and value of digital health tools, how to effectively use digital health tools and new developments in the digital health space that can be helpful to Canadians. We will also share information about new activities and programs supported or developed by Infoway and content from our partners.

We’re excited to kick off a new series spotlighting the recipients of our 2025 Connected Care Innovation Grant. These grassroots clinical initiatives are advancing digital health interoperability and improving Connected Care for patients and providers across Canada.

First up: The IBD Centre of BC.

A registered charity, The IBD Centre of BC provides timely, evidence-based, multidisciplinary care for people living with inflammatory bowel disease. Through clinical and digital innovation, they’re enhancing access to care, coordination, and quality for patients.

With support from the Grant, the IBD Centre of BC is introducing an AI-powered decision-support system to automate the triaging and management of referrals from primary to specialized digestive care.

The result?

✅ Reduced administrative burden for gastroenterologists
✅ Improved access to care for patients
✅ A more responsive health system overall

11/28/2025

Congratulations to the Government of Nova Scotia on the launch of the new Patient Summary feature in the YourHealthNS app, now available to Nova Scotians.

This release marks another meaningful step toward giving people greater access to, and control over, their own health information. With a secure, user-controlled summary of key medical details, Nova Scotians can now share information such as allergies, medications, immunizations, lab results, and hospital visits quickly and safely with trusted providers or caregivers.

At Infoway, we believe that empowering patients with access to their health data — and enabling safe, trusted exchange — is foundational to delivering Connected Care across Canada. The YourHealthNS launch reflects this vision in action, and we congratulate the Nova Scotia Health Authority on reaching this incredible milestone.

Digital health innovations grounded in national standards, such as the Pan-Canadian Patient Summary (PS-CA), help make care more coordinated, timely, and person-centred. We look forward to continued progress with jurisdictions and partners across the country as we work together to advance a modern, connected health system for all Canadians.

Nova Scotians can now access a summary of their medical information through the YourHealthNS app.

The new feature allows users to generate and share a concise overview of their medical record with a healthcare provider or another trusted individual. The secure summary may include allergies and intolerances, medical conditions, diagnostic imaging, immunizations, lab results, medications, and hospital visits or stays.

The summary is created directly from the province’s secure electronic health record. The same source that provides Nova Scotians with access to view their health information in YourHealthNS. Read more: https://news.novascotia.ca/en/2025/11/28/patient-summary-now-available-yourhealthns
