In a news release issued Wednesday, Susan Antosh, CEO of eHealth Saskatchewan, said the Crown corporation is "committed to ensuring there will be a seamless transition with a continued focus on customer service," adding "eHealth is well-suited to incorporate health registration because of our robust privacy and security safeguards for personal health information." The transfer is expected to take effect in early November.
"eHealth currently works closely with health registration to provide support for the electronic system that runs the online application and renewal process for health cards. The function of health registration aligns well with the recent transfer of vital statistics to eHealth," the release said.
eHealth Saskatchewan is responsible for the implementation of the provincial electronic health record and it co-ordinates, implements and maintains key electronic health information systems in many public health care organizations.
