What Ehealth Saskatchewan does

eHealth Saskatchewan is a Treasury Board Crown Corporation headquartered in Regina, Saskatchewan, that operates as the province's central health information technology agency. Founded in 2011 with 251-500 employees, it coordinates, implements, and maintains the Electronic Health Record (eHR) infrastructure connecting all Saskatchewan acute care facilities, community pharmacies, laboratories, and diagnostic imaging sites. The organization serves two principal user populations: authorized healthcare providers who access clinical data at the point of care, and Saskatchewan residents who retrieve their own health information through the MySaskHealthRecord portal and mobile applications.

The core technology portfolio centers on five integrated provincial systems: the eHR Viewer (a secure web-based portal giving providers a single provincial patient view across ~98% of Saskatchewan laboratory results, medication profiles, imaging reports, clinical documents, immunizations, and chronic disease indicators); the Pharmaceutical Information Program (PIP) for medication reconciliation and ePrescribing; the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) for diagnostic imaging including x-ray, CT, MRI, and nuclear medicine; Panorama, the provincial immunization registry; and MySaskHealthRecord, the citizen-facing portal available on web, iOS 14+, and Android 11+. Supporting services include EMR Interoperability (connecting Accuro and Med Access EMRs bidirectionally), Chronic Disease Management Quality Improvement Program (CDM-QIP) for Coronary Artery Disease, Diabetes, Heart Failure, and COPD, Virtual Care, Referral and Consult Tools, and Health Data and Analytics. All systems operate under The Health Information Protection Act (HIPA) compliance framework, with TELUS Health Solutions and Get Real Health providing the underlying technology platform for MySaskHealthRecord.

The business model is that of a government-funded public agency rather than a commercial enterprise. eHealth Saskatchewan is funded through the Saskatchewan Ministry of Health budget and delivers all digital health services free of charge to residents and authorized providers. Go-to-market is direct-to-government through the Saskatchewan Health Authority and the Ministry of Health, with citizen access distributed through self-serve web portals, mobile applications, and the Saskatchewan.ca single sign-on identity verification system (with SGI handling identity proofing). The organization holds a legislatively-embedded monopoly on provincial health information management, faces no commercial pricing, and reports through annual reports to the provincial government. The interim CEO is Davin Church.
