Distribution of Electronic Access to Personal Health Information (PHI) across Sociodemographic and Socioeconomic Strata in Canada

Using data from the 2023 Digital Health Equity Analysis conducted by Canada Health Infoway, we examine the current landscape of access to electronic personal health information across several population groups in Canada. We explore the concept of digital health equity and discuss its importance in facilitating improved health outcomes and experiences through increased access to electronic personal health information across the health system. Furthermore, we present examples of current initiatives and work taking place to support equitable access to personal health information online.
