SUMMARY:Webinar Wednesday - Beyond the Hype: AI Agents = More Time For Patient Care
DESCRIPTION:The Challenge: The healthcare sector faces significant challenges: \n\nGrowing demand for healthcare professionals\, with a projected 16% increase from 2020 to 2030.\nCanada/The United States are facing a potential shortage of 500\,000 physicians and nurses.\nClinicians spend on average 40% of their time on administrative tasks\, contributing to burnout.\n\nThe Solution: Agentic AI Agents \nAI Agents can be used as intelligent assistants designed to automate administrative tasks\, streamline workflows\, and improve clinician efficiency in healthcare settings. \nCase Study Highlights (sample client results): \n\nPatient Scheduling: AI-driven appointment workflows achieve high automation rates (up to 96%) and significant time savings (e.g.\, 1\,740 hours saved annually);\nOncology Program: AI assistants streamline processes\, achieving automation rates of up to 98.3% and saving up to 2\,145 hours annually;\nPulmonology: AI agents automate tasks with automation rates of 99% and time savings of 2\,300 hours annually;\nSurgery Clinical Visit Prep: AI agents save 1\,488 hours annually and provide extra capacity.\n\nThis presentation will include seeing the AI Agents in action. \nFebruary Webinar Wednesdays are sponsored by Merge.

SUMMARY:Webinar Wednesday - Pan-Canadian Document Ontology: You should use it too!
DESCRIPTION:Documents distributed by hospitals or exchanged between clinics in the community need to be classified. Most primary care clinics in Canada are already struggling with unclassified documents that need to be re-labelled and filed manually. This will worsen when community clinics begin sending documents digitally. Using a document classification system will automate filing and enable consistent and useful document titles. It will also reduce time spent by physicians opening new documents and finding old documents. BC is using a document classification system that is achieving these benefits and CIHI is making a pan-Canadian version. \nIn this webinar\, Dr. Ian Bekker (Island Health)\, will explain what the document classification system is that BC is using and how other health systems can make one themselves. \nLearn more: \n\nAn FP’s quest for meaningful medical document titles

SUMMARY:Webinar Wednesday - Transforming Radiology Referrals in Primary Care: The Impact of Implementing a Clinical Decision Support System in Québec
DESCRIPTION:In this session\, we’ll explore how Santé Québec implemented the OrderWise Clinical Decision Support platform by MedCurrent\, A VitalHub Company. The objective of the project was to support radiology referrals in primary care across multiple regions to improve efficiency\, align with local clinical guidelines\, and reduce costs. \nWhat you’ll learn: \n\nProvincial roll-out strategy – multi-regional implementation integrated with the provincial Service d’Acheminement de Formulaires Informatisés et suivis de Requêtes (SAFIR) platform.\nClinical content integration – leveraging national\, provincial and local radiology referral guidelines from the Canadian Association of Radiologists (CAR) and l’Institut National d’Excellence en Santé et Services Sociaux (INESSS).\nImplementation challenges – IT complexity\, competing priorities\, physician engagement\, and French-language adaptation.\nTangible results – improved quality and efficiency of diagnostic pathways; 6% of orders canceled as non-appropriate\, saving ~$750K annually per 40\,000 referrals.\nLessons learned & path forward – perspectives from Santé Québec and MedCurrent.\nNational implications – how Québec’s model can inform a pan-Canadian CDS strategy.\n\nJoin us to see how digitized\, evidence-based diagnostic referrals are transforming patient care and health system performance in Québec—and how your health system can benefit.

SUMMARY:Webinar Wednesday - Achieving a connected health data system: The current state in Canada
DESCRIPTION:Commissioned by Roche Canada and developed by Santis Health\, the Achieving a connected health data system report provides an independent assessment of data connectivity across Canadian provinces. Analysis confirms that while digital foundations exist\, Canada lags significantly behind international peers in capitalizing on them. Often\, electronic data remains siloed and practically inaccessible for care or research. \nWe will explore how provinces can leverage shared learnings to overcome fragmentation and transition from data custodianship to stewardship\, ultimately improving health systems for all Canadians.

SUMMARY:Webinar Wednesday - Mechanism-guided Development of a Clinical-grade Hemodynamic Therapy
DESCRIPTION:Spinal cord injury often causes devastating cardiovascular instability due to disruption of autonomic control. In this presentation\, Dr. Aaron Phillips discusses the discovery of the spinal circuits that control blood pressure\, and the development of a clinical-grade therapeutic targeting these circuits that has now been tested in a number of clinical trials. These findings\, recently accepted for simultaneous publication in Nature and Nature Medicine\, represent a new frontier in mechanism-guided therapeutics—grounded in foundational physiology and built for clinical translation.
