During Health Information Professional Week, October 20 to 24, we celebrate the integrity, insight, and impact of the health information profession.
Health information is the presentation of health data that provides an accurate and holistic health story for every Canadian.
Emergency wait times, specialist referrals, and immunization records are a few examples of where health data is collected along a person’s health care journey.
Health data is obtained in various areas of the health care sector, such as acute care, primary care, or long term care. It is also useful to additional sectors such as insurance, education, business, and finance, to name a few.
