Join Dr. Chandi Chandrasena, OntarioMD’s Chief Medical Officer and Alyssa Bryan, RN, MScN, Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) as they share their clinical insights and experiences in developing the health data standards to enable Connected Care and improve patient safety and ensure quality care.
