Development

Who is it for?

MedDialog and Integrated eFax is currently offered to PS Suite, Med Access, and Wolf EMR users across Canada, and will continue to expand to our Quebec platforms this year. The service will be integrated with other TELUS Health EMR solutions, will evolve to connect you to the extended care team, and will be expanded to include external partners as well.

Teamwork

Why is this so important?

Secure and convenient electronic communication among a patient’s care team – primary care providers, specialists, pharmacists and patients themselves – is core to redefining Canada’s health ecosystem.
