What Mr. Bromley is referring to is health records, electronic health records. So if the Chair has no objection, I would like to have the deputy minister explain the difference between electronic health records and electronic medical records.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Very briefly, we do have the electronic health records available throughout the system now and all your medical information as a patient is available there. The electronic medical record is now being used in Yellowknife and Hay River and it has a lot of features that the health records don’t have. So the doctor can actually chart in there while he or she is using it; they can actually look up standards or clinical practice guidelines in the record. They can send questions to experts for referrals and get an almost immediate answer, and in the case of chronic disease, the medical record can actually give the doctor prompts, so remember to see if this person has renewed their medication. So it’s a much more interactive tool, whereas what you’re seeing today is more likely just looking at what’s happened in the past. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
