PHIPA Summit 2013

Thu, 28 Nov 2013 00:00:00 GMT

The PHIPA Summit is a two-day affair, focusing again on Ontario’s Health Privacy legislation as well as establishing proven Health IM strategies.

Ontario’s health information privacy legislation must strike the right balance between allowing health care providers to quickly pass on the information needed for patient care to other health providers, while restricting unauthorized disclosure. As technology continues to ease information transfer, it also continues to blur the lines between disclosure vs breach, consent vs access denial or private vs personal. Both the PHIPA legislation as well as the electronic records revolution have reinforced the fact that now is the time to better develop information management strategies, especially in the public health sector.
