Overview

This group is a collaborative forum focused on HALO, a standardized technology framework that enables approved jurisdictional and vendor applications to seamlessly integrate into any authorized Point of Care system. It does this by enabling coordination and knowledge sharing on specifications that support application launch, shared context, and streamlined access to services such as eReferral and patient data viewing. This matters because fragmented systems and disconnected workflows increase administrative burden and limit effective care coordination for community‑based providers.

Ultimately, this work helps participants align on interoperable approaches that simplify integrations and support more efficient, user‑centered digital health workflows.

Who it’s for

Intended for jurisdictions, vendors, clinicians, policymakers, researchers, and standards organizations involved in Canada’s digital health ecosystem who design, implement, or scale application‑based interoperability solutions in community care settings.
