Toronto & Kingston – February 4th, 2021
The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) having conducted a rigorous procurement process for an enterprise wide referral management and central intake solution has selected Novari Health technology.
Novari eRequest® is a scalable referral management, central intake and workflow management solution that can be deployed at an individual hospital, regional, provincial, or national level. The technology can be configured to optimize local workflows to drive efficiencies and improve access to care for patients. Developed in Canada it has been implemented for many clinical “pathways” to include medical imaging, orthopedics, mental health, addictions, and diabetes etc.
“Novari’s work with CAMH builds upon our experience and our success in providing the Mississauga Halton region with a region-wide central intake technology for mental health, addictions and other pathways.” John Sinclair, CPHIMS-CA President, Novari Health.
Novari eRequest® will be deployed to help ensure that all inbound referrals to CAMH are received, triaged, processed, and electronically routed to the appropriate CAMH clinical resources. Novari’s extensive experience in working and integrating with Cerner technology will be leveraged during this project.
“The implementation of the Novari tools will ensure Access CAMH, our centralized referral service, is equipped with a system that can seamlessly coordinate the patient journey from referral, to care. With over 20,000 outpatient referrals per year currently, Novari tools will allow Access CAMH to the meet the growing demand for mental health services in a timely and efficient way, and improve the experience of patients, families and referring partners.” Linda Mohri, Vice President, Clinical Care, CAMH
