About this listen
Having accurate and up-to-date health data is essential for Health Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) to make decisions that keep people in Canada healthy. We use health data to promote healthy living, prevent and manage chronic and infectious diseases, respond to health emergencies, prepare for future public health threats, and assess and improve how our health systems are working.
Host Megan Beahan is joined by Chris Allison, PHAC's Chief Data Officer and Director General, Centre for Data Management, Innovation and Analytics, and Elizabeth Toller, Director General of Health Canada's Health Care Strategies. They explore what health data is, how it's shared and break down some misconceptions.
