Canada Health Infoway's current business plan. "More and more Canadians have come to expect access to health care information online as a way to make informed choices about care. Our Corporate Business Plan outlines how Infoway and its jurisdictional partners are working together to bring electronic health records within reach of all Canadians." I'm very wary of the impact of "private players" in this program - and optimistic about the potential to integrate personal health records with personal learning environments, centering the information of a personal server, rather than in some government or corporate database (where it would be stolen).
