Industry Insights: CCI "Care at Scale" Policy Report & Panel

In March, the Council of Canadian Innovators (CCI) officially released their landmark policy report, Care at Scale. To mark the launch, CCI hosted a panel of domestic health-tech leaders to discuss the report’s findings and provide a roadmap for a more integrated, innovative Canadian healthcare system.

IDENTOS was honoured to participate as a guest panelist, contributing our perspective on how interoperable digital infrastructure can solve the "pilot cycle" and improve patient outcomes at a national level.

‍

‍Key Takeaways:

• Breaking the "Pilot Cycle": Identifying why successful technologies stall and how to create predictable pathways from pilot to province-wide procurement.
• Redesigning Procurement: How rules can be rewritten to scale what actually works.
• Building a Connected System: What it will take to create a digitally enabled health system that delivers better outcomes for patients.

Why This Matters for Our Partners

As IDENTOS continues to build the infrastructure for Ontario Health Teams (OHTs) and health clusters, the findings in the Care at Scale report serve as a vital guide for our partners. It highlights the policy shifts necessary to make "connected care" a reality across Canada.

"Canada already has world-class innovators ready to help fix real problems inside the system. Care at Scale focuses on the execution tools: how to buy, how to evaluate, and how to share data responsibly." — Laurent Carbonneau, CCI
