Our team had a great time attending the Digital Health Canada Ontario Conference yesterday, where one message came through clearly: digital transformation in healthcare isn’t just about technology or policy, it’s about people. The keynote from Matt Anderson and Deborah Richardson emphasized the importance of building systems centred on patient care, grounded in the realities of the challenges we’re trying to solve.

There’s growing clarity that digital infrastructure must be treated as foundational, not a side initiative. It enables better access, reduces duplication, and supports providers in meaningful ways. We also heard a strong push toward a more connected ecosystem rather than a single system, alongside a focus on simplification and clearer roadmaps to enable more scalable, “plug-and-play” solutions.

Insights from Alexis Villa and Glen Kearns strongly reflected the work we do at Amplify Care. Alexis highlighted that transformation lives or dies in implementation, and that success requires a dedicated layer to ensure solutions are not just deployed, but truly adopted. Glen reinforced this with the concept of “Day 2”—the ongoing optimization that’s critical for long-term impact but often overlooked.

Overall, it was a strong reminder that meaningful digital transformation doesn’t come from the tools themselves, but from how well we support people, providers, patients, and teams to integrate and use them in practice.

The recent announcement from Minister Sylvia Jones signals real momentum for primary care in Ontario. Continued investment in medical records, along with broader system supports, reflects a clear commitment to strengthening how care is delivered across the province.

Standardizing and integrating medical records across the digital health ecosystem is a critical step toward a more integrated digital health ecosystem, one that better supports clinicians in their day-to-day work while improving the overall patient experience.

At the same time, investments in services and frontline supports will play an essential role in helping care teams respond to increasing demand and complexity, ensuring they can continue delivering high-quality, patient-centred care.

Amplify Care is encouraged by this progress and the focus on supporting primary care clinicians. We look forward to being part of the continued evolution of a more connected and resilient healthcare system in Ontario.

Don’t miss this important conversation! Access to primary care remains a top priority in Ontario, but connecting every resident to a provider requires more than policy solutions. It takes the right digital tools and infrastructure to support clinicians and patients alike.

On March 31 at 1:00 PM EST, join Jijesh Devan (IDENTOS Inc.), Ryan Doherty, PhD (Empower Health), and Ted Alexander (Amplify Care) for an executive briefing on how Ontario can scale patient attachment through digital innovation.

The session will explore how HALO-aligned, modular tools can turn Primary Care Action Team (PCAT) strategies into actionable steps.

Topics will include:
🛠️ Implementing HALO-compliant digital solutions
🛡️ Expanding patient attachment without adding administrative burden
🤝 Enhancing regional care coordination and access

Discover how technology can help make universal primary care a reality.

We’re excited to share our latest case study on how the Evidence2Practice Ontario (E2P) heart failure EMR tool is helping clinicians deliver more coordinated, evidence‑aligned care right at the point of care.

In partnership with the All‑Nations Health Partners Ontario Health Team, this case study highlights how the tool supports standardized care, strengthens interprofessional collaboration, and improves workflow efficiency, especially in rural and remote settings where access to specialist resources can be limited. Clinicians reported that consolidating key clinical data into one integrated view saved time and helped ensure that best‑practice elements of care were consistently addressed.

Heart failure remains a complex and growing burden on the health system, and tools like E2P demonstrate the promise of EMR‑integrated solutions to enhance care delivery and equity across diverse care settings.

Last Thursday evening, some of our team members attended the BEA Gala hosted by the Chamber of Commerce and what a great evening it was! 🎉

While Amplify Care didn’t take home an award this year, we want to congratulate Demi for their win, an impressive team doing some exciting work in the AI space.

It was a night full of accomplishments: our table-mates Bricks and Mini Figs, the LEGO store on the boardwalk, won New Business of the Year — well deserved! And our office neighbour, WHRN Foundation, was recognized with nominations in multiple categories.

Even without an award, evenings like this are a wonderful way to celebrate local innovation, connect with fellow businesses, and support the amazing work happening in our community!

Last week, our Manager of Change Management, Meghan Brenner-Burgoyne, attended the Canadian Health Services & Policy Research (CHSPR) Conference, themed “The Quintuple Aim: Can’t Get There From Here?”, an inspiring gathering that fosters robust debate and discussion on the pressing issues shaping Canada’s health systems.

Opening remarks from Cynthia Johansen, Deputy Minister of Health, BC Ministry of Health, set the stage for a thoughtful exploration of strategies to:

Improve population health
Slow healthcare spending growth
Enhance the patient experience
Support the health and well-being of the workforce
All while considering the critical cross-cutting domain of health equity.

The conference also featured other outstanding speakers, including Ibukun Abejirinde, Jason Sutherland, Neil Arya, and many more, sharing insights that challenge assumptions and spark meaningful discussion.

Events like CHSPR highlight the importance of bringing together leaders, policymakers, and innovators to shape the future of healthcare in Canada.
