Illustrating the COPD client’s journey through the care continuum using PHC EMR data from The Alliance for Healthier Communities
Beginning in January 2018, CIHI and The Alliance for Healthier Communities embarked on a collaborative project focused on demonstrating the value of collecting structured linkable EMR data, especially for diagnosis and treatment data.
