About CareCanvas
Physicians across Ontario have come together to design a tool to help Family Physicians better understand and care for the communities you serve.
CareCanvas is a collaboration between the University of Toronto’s Department of Family and Community Medicine (DFCM) and the Primary Care Ontario Practice-based Learning and Research Network (POPLAR). POPLAR is an initiative of Ontario’s six University Family Medicine departments and the Alliance for Healthier Communities.
CareCanvas will be available to existing UPLEARN contributors. UPLEARN is the University of Toronto's Practice- and Community-Based LEarning And Research Network and one of the six POPLAR University sites. We plan to expand the program to all of POPLAR.
CareCanvas is an interactive web-based dashboard that summarizes clinical information from your practice EMR to make it easier to care for your patients. The data are extracted from your EMR and then cleaned, processed, and stored in a secure server with POPLAR.
Please keep in mind that the data are not perfect. We use algorithms that have been developed by researchers to identify common chronic conditions and some patients may be incorrectly classified.
