Priority 2 - Seamless Experience: Right Time, Right Place, Right Care
3 Coordinated Care
The Current Status
• The primary health system in PEI is divided into 5 "Primary Care
Networks", with each covering a different geographical area.16
•
•
Each of these networks contains several health centres that
patients can access, providing a variety of services. 16
Limited data connectivity and the lack of a communication
framework creates a barrier to coordination.
The Future Goal
Proactively communicate the available programs and services and
how to access them, to both patients and providers.
Improve communication between providers, ensure warm hand-
offs are provided where possible, and leverage system/patient
navigators.
• Create frameworks to promote accountability amongst providers
while keeping the patients' best interest at the forefront.
Enablers for Seamless Experience
Improvements to the digital technology infrastructure
helps enable coordinated care. For instance, to
facilitate the warm hand-offs, there must be good data
flow between providers, which avoids duplicated
testing and service provision, as well as the need for
patients to repeat their stories.
Strong system partnerships between providers - both
private and public, helps coordinate care across the
system. Local and off-Island health services and
treatments ensure the collaborative care provided
with larger jurisdictions is timely and coordinated.
