Province of Manitoba | Provincial Electronic Health Record (EHR) Resources






Manitoba eHealth Vision
The Manitoba eHealth Program will facilitate the improvement and enablement of healthcare delivery transformation through the use of information and communication technology. Manitoba eHealth offers a single integrated organization capable of providing province-wide solutions under the direction of the Manitoba eHealth Board.

Manitoba eHealth Mandate:
• Begin the process for integrating health care systems across regions and care-sectors
• Improve and expand health care services by managing information and communication technology as a single organization capable of achieving economies-of-scale, province-wide
• Improve the efficiency and effectiveness of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) services by leveraging the benefits of a centralized delivery model.


Through a coordinated provincial approach, Manitoba eHealth is working with health care professionals to plan, design and build the necessary systems that will lead to a provincial Electronic Health Record (EHR).
