Hawkesbury using Novari to share surgical wait list data

July 14, 2021


John Sinclair 2021KINGSTON, ON – Novari Health announced that its technology will be used by Hawkesbury General Hospital (HGH) to facilitate the sharing of surgical wait lists with other regional hospitals. HGH will be sharing wait list data from its Epic medical record system with The Ottawa Hospital, Queensway Carleton Hospital, Hôpital Montfort and Cornwall Community Hospital to provide regional insight and coordination capabilities.

The participating hospitals use a mix of digital technologies, including Meditech, Cerner, Epic and Novari. By deploying Novari as an agnostic enabling technology, information from these various clinical systems will be consolidated.

“Retrieving real-time surgical backlog data from Epic, Cerner, Meditech and our own Novari clinical systems is complex and unprecedented,” said John Sinclair (pictured), President of Novari Health. “Our ability to consolidate this information is unique and will enable health regions across Canada to better manage the massive surgical backlog caused by the pandemic.”

With technical support from The Ottawa Hospital, Novari Health technology will be integrated with the Epic system at HGH to supply relevant wait list data up to the regional view.

The Novari technology is being provided as software as a service (SaaS) to the hospital. The necessary cancellation of elective surgical cases during the 1st and the 3rd waves of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in an unprecedented backlog of surgical cases.

Having a regional and real-time view of the surgical backlog from participating hospitals will province the region with a powerful management tool for reducing wait lists and optimizing patient flow.

The Ontario Ministry of Health, Ontario Health and hospitals across the province have been working to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on patients waiting for surgery.

Novari Health’s innovative and unique access to care technologies are live or being implemented at dozens of hospitals and regional health authorities across five Canadian provinces.
