First Looks: Serious Adverse Drug Reaction Reporting

The Protecting Canadians from Unsafe Drugs Act, also known as Vanessa's Law, strengthen's Health Canada's ability to collect information and take action when serious health risks are discovered in association with medications. All Canadian health care facilities must implement reporting processes later this year; indeed Alberta Health Services has to have reporting capacity in place the same month as Connect Care's first launch in the Edmonton Zone.

Epic has worked with AHS to develop an embedded serious adverse drug reaction reporting workflow that can work for all Canadian clients. This is ready for a first look, but will continue to be enhanced:
