Program Coordinator – Legal, Privacy, Governance, Risk

Overview

At Canada Health Infoway (Infoway) we believe a more connected and collaborative system is a healthier system, and we work with governments, healthcare organizations, clinicians, and patients to make health care more digital. We’re working to ensure that everyone can access their personal health information, book appointments, get prescriptions, view lab test results and access other health services, online. We are working with our partners to transform the health system because we know that digital health can be as transformative as digital has been in other aspects of our lives. We are an independent, not-for-profit organization funded by the federal government.

Connected care means a healthier Canada, and Infoway is committed to advancing interoperability. Harnessing data sharing will result in “connected care” and a modern health system for all Canadians. In support of the provinces and territories, Infoway is facilitating a national collaborative effort to advance interoperability using a collaborative development process.

Together with our jurisdictional, clinical, patient and industry partners we are committed to improving the health of Canadians by accelerating the development, adoption and effective use of innovative digital health solutions.

Infoway is on a learning journey guided by what we learn from Indigenous voices. We are committed to respecting Indigenous data sovereignty, advancing cultural safety and humility and supporting the health and data priorities of First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples. We will do this through the development of respectful relationships and partnerships with First Nations, Inuit, Métis, Northern governments, organizations, and communities, which will guide our efforts.
