Virtual Care in Canada — Dr. Ewan Affleck

Virtual health care in Canada has boomed during the COVID-19 pandemic, offering Canadians unprecedented online access to medical professionals. Now, as the day-to-day effects of the pandemic are lessening in much of the country, the question on many minds is “will I still have this convenient option going forward?” In this episode of the CHIP, host Avis Favaro speaks with Dr. Ewan Affleck, the senior medical advisor for health informatics at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Alberta and chair of the Alberta Virtual Care Coordinating Body, about the future of virtual care in Canada and why he is so passionate about continuing its growth.
