What is the PS-CA?

The Patient Summary-CA is:

  • an electronic patient summary for use at the point of care comprised of, at minimum, the required elements of the Patient Summary-CA data set and specifications.

  • a health record extract, at a snapshot in time, comprised of a standardized collection of clinical and contextual information (retrospective, concurrent, prospective), including the minimum necessary and sufficient data to inform a patient's treatment at the point of care.

  • condition-independent and specialty-agnostic, irrespective of the condition of the patient or the treatment sought or specialty of the provider delivering care.

The PS-CA Interoperability Bundle includes four documents, providing the details of an implementable, testable Patient Summary-CA specification, based on the IHE International Patient Summary (IPS) specification. For more information, please visit the pan-Canadian Patient Summary (PS-CA) page.
