BC Digital Health Forum Join us from November 20-24 as we celebrate digital health in British Columbia.

[Sandra Holdsworth]

Inspired by Canada Health Infoway’s national event, BC Digital Health Forum extends this celebration of digital health with a series of virtual and hybrid events.

Theme: Collaboration in action - Creating a digitally enabled health system.

Teams from across PHSA, and the wider health-care system across British Columbia, are working together to bring you a wide variety of speaker events, learning opportunities and fun activities.

Each day of the week is themed, and we are excited to host our guest speakers who will be presenting on many different aspects of digital and virtual health.

Monday: People, products and change (A) + Cutting edge innovation/The Future is Now

Tuesday: Data, analytics, reporting and evaluation

Wednesday: Our in-person day. Topics include AI, policy updates from the Ministry of Health, equitable products, a patient partner panel, digital health literacy and student poster presentations.

Thursday: Choice and care delivery

Friday: In-person Healthcare Design Thinking Workshop
