Nova Scotia Personal Health Record Demonstration Project - Benefits Evaluation Report

August 8, 2014

The Nova Scotia Department of Health and Wellness undertook a two-year demonstration project to introduce a Personal Health Record (PHR) to the provincial health care system by implementing the RelayHealth PHR solution within the Capital Health district. The purpose of this benefits evaluation was to determine if there is a viable business case for the government of Nova Scotia to roll out the RelayHealth PHR solution province-wide.
