SUMMARY:Webinar Wednesday - AI-Enabled Clinical Summaries: Reducing Chart Review Burden to Support Patient Attachment
DESCRIPTION:Patient attachment remains one of the most pressing challenges facing primary care systems today. Across jurisdictions\, growing numbers of unattached patients\, increasing administrative burden\, and workforce constraints are putting pressure on providers and health systems to find new approaches to improving access and continuity of care. \nOnce patients are attached\, clinicians must quickly review and understand a patient’s clinical history in order to determine the appropriate care pathway. Referral packages\, specialist consult letters\, hospital discharge summaries\, diagnostic reports\, and historical records often arrive as large unstructured document sets across multiple systems. For complex patients\, clinicians can spend hours reviewing hundreds of pages of PDFs and scanned records to assemble a clear clinical picture before the first visit. \nThis webinar will bring together primary care and technology leaders to discuss the realities of patient attachment on the ground and explore how emerging AI-enabled tools are helping care teams synthesize fragmented documentation into structured clinical summaries that support intake assessment\, pre-visit preparation\, and clinical decision-making. \nThrough a moderated panel discussion\, speakers will share insights on where attachment processes break down\, where technology can meaningfully support care teams\, and what organizations should consider when implementing AI to improve patient access\, navigation\, and readiness for care. \nPresented by: \n\nPaige Baltessen\, Primary Care Manager\, Grand Bend Area Community Health Centre (GBACHC)\nTricia Wilkerson\, Director of Integrated Care\, Amplify Care\nAlissa Taylor\, Chief Product Officer\, Akinox\n\nModerated by: \n\nMark Casselman\, Chief Growth Officer\, Akinox

SUMMARY:Webinar Wednesday - Introduce Clinical Intake. Tailor the AI. Improve the Scribe. CAMH × FirstHx on Where AI Documentation Breaks in Complex Care
DESCRIPTION:Where AI Scribes Break Today \nAI scribes are scaling rapidly—but “good enough” documentation can introduce real clinical\, legal\, and equity risk\, especially in specialty and complex care. \nImproving the Input: FirstHx \nFirstHx addresses this at the source by improving the clinical context fed into a scribe. Patients complete adaptive\, evidence-based clinical interviews before the visit\, generating structured\, longitudinal histories that reduce reliance on incomplete\, real-time conversations and allow clinicians to focus on diagnosis and treatment. \nImproving Interpretation: CAMH \nAt the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH)\, the first enterprise AI scribe customized for mental health and addictions deployed in Canada shows where current approaches break—cross-organizational data leakage\, missed suicide risk\, incomplete mental status capture\, loss of non-verbal context\, and failure to reflect cultural nuance. \nWhat This Could Enable \nTogether\, these approaches point to a potential shift in integrated care. By combining structured pre-visit histories with AI that can interpret complex conversations\, documentation could become more complete and longitudinal—helping clinicians better identify patterns\, reduce misattribution\, and make more coordinated decisions across mental and physical health. \nCross-Sector Perspective \nThis session brings CAMH and FirstHx’s unaffiliated work together for the first time. Moderated by the eMental Health International Collaborative (eMHIC)\, it explores both the benefits and the limitations of cross-sector collaboration—and what becomes possible when different parts of the system are examined together\, without assuming partnership. \nSession Structure & Flow \n\nBrief framing of where AI scribes stand today\nCase study: FirstHx\nCase study: CAMH\nModerated panel discussion\nAudience Q&A\n\nKey Takeaways \n\nWhere AI scribes break in real-world care\nWhy both clinical context and interpretation matter\nRisks: clinician rework\, misdiagnosis\, legal exposure\, and inequities\nWhat this could enable for more connected\, whole-person care\n\nPresented by: \n\nDr. Tania Tajirian (LinkedIn) is Chief Health Information Officer and Chief of Hospital Medicine at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH)\nDr. Chris O’Connor\, (LinkedIn) CEO of FirstHx\, critical care physician at Trillium Health Partners\, and Founder and former President of Think Research.\nLinda Hanane Mouhamou (LinkedIn) (she/her/elle)\, Management Consultant and Patient Partner

SUMMARY:Webinar Wednesday - Governing Generative AI: From Permission to Competency to Measurement
DESCRIPTION:Will Falk discusses his new CSA Public Policy Centre paper\, “A Complement\, Not a Substitute: Generative AI’s Role in Canadian Healthcare in 2026.”   \nThe paper’s central argument is simple: the bigger risk now is moving too slowly. Clinicians are already using generative tools for documentation and information retrieval. Patients are using them to get explanations and navigate a system that often fails to do either. Pretending we can pause this adoption doesn’t make healthcare safer.  It may lead to a shadow system. \nWill examines where generative AI offers real leverage against familiar constraints\, why the complement-versus-substitute distinction matters for clinical practice\, what early Canadian implementations are actually showing\, and what policymakers and regulators need to get right. The audience should expect a direct\, evidence-based case for moving faster with appropriate safeguards not another cautious call for more study. \nRead an excerpt from “A Complement\, Not a Substitute: Generative AI’s Role in Canadian Healthcare in 2026” at: https://www.canhealth.com/2026/02/26/governing-generative-ai-from-permission-to-competency-to-measurement/
