Traditionally, health information has been stored on paper files in medical facilities like physicians’ offices, testing facilities, hospitals and pharmacies. Now, health information is typically stored on computers at each of those sites.  

Each health care location submits key patient health information to Alberta Netcare. This information is then presented as a single integrated patient record. Alberta Netcare can be accessed by authorized health care providers, through a secure internet connection. Alberta Netcare makes it faster and easier for clinicians to access up-to-date information about their patients. This makes them able to provide the very best quality of patient care. Learn more about how your health information is protected.
