Connected Care in Action Episode 4 Accelerating Together How Public-Private Collaboration Drives System Change

A connected health system cannot be built within technological silos or fragmented partnerships. It requires sustained collaboration across government, industry, clinical leaders, patients and communities, and many more, who share a vision for more modern, efficient, and collaborative care. This session will explore how strategic public-private partnerships are accelerating Canada’s digital health transformation, while also helping to address long-standing challenges such as data fragmentation, clinician burden, and scaling digital pilots into sustainable system-wide solutions. At the heart of the discussion is Canada Health Infoway’s Vendor Innovation Program (VIP), a national initiative that supports vendors in developing solutions that are standards-based, clinically grounded, and ready to scale. Featured Speakers: Ashley Miller, Chief Medical Information Officer, Nova Scotia Health & IWK Health, Mike Forseth, Chief Executive Officer, Ava, Darek Szadkowski, Vice President of Strategy, Programs, and Partnerships, Canada Health Infoway and Moderator: Edwin White Chacon, Manager, Enablement Services, Canada Health Infoway
