Small Group Dialogue on Building Trust in Health Data, Safety and Privacy
IPS, a public engagement group working with the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) and Health Canada (HC), is currently working on a project regarding the use and sharing of health data, as well as the need to improve data literacy among Canadians.
IPS is holding an online virtual dialogue via Zoom, during which they’d like to hear from people with disabilities about the sharing of health data in Canada. For example, to allow doctors to share medical records, help patients monitor their own health, and improve health care. They’re particularly interested in hearing participants’ concerns, needs, and perspectives—especially as a member of an equity-deserving group—to increase how data is understood and to find ways to improve health data sharing.
The dialogue takes place on February 11th at 12pm ET and IPS is offering participants an honorarium of $100 for their contribution and time.
IPS would greatly appreciate your participation. If you’re interested, please register here: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/1096385260829?aff=oddtdtcreator
