Overview
Advancing Digital Health for Ontario Health Teams (OHTs)
OntarioMD (OMD) is working with Ontario Health (OH) and the Ministry of Health (MOH) to support digital health adoption for Ontario Health Teams (OHTs) and the community-based clinicians located within each OHT through our OHT Digital Health Advancement Program, training and education.
OMD’s almost 20 years of experience working with more than 20,000 clinicians means we understand what clinicians need to deliver the best possible patient care. OMD provides clinicians with practical tools and supports to improve workflows and enhance efficiency using their EMR and other digital health tools that provide access to lab test results, hospital reports, drug information and much more.

Alignment of Needs: Experts at linking OHT needs to the tangible needs of clinicians so that they feel supported, helping to cultivate win-win relationships.
OMD Advisory Service: Ongoing advice to help clinicians optimize their use of digital health and virtual care tools and improve practice efficiency—including time-saving tips to access and manage consults, reports from hospitals, specialty clinics and COVaxON, medication data, lab test results and other patient information—and protect patient data.
