WeHealth Electronic Health Records (EHR)
Complete Hospital Information System with FHIR Integration
WeHealth's comprehensive Electronic Health Records system manages the complete patient journey from registration to discharge. With native FHIR interoperability, clinical decision support, and specialty-specific templates, our EHR empowers Canadian healthcare providers to deliver exceptional patient care.
What is WeHealth EHR?
WeHealth Electronic Health Records (EHR), also known as Hospital Information System (HIS), is a comprehensive clinical documentation platform that manages all aspects of patient care. From primary care consultations to specialized procedures, emergency care to chronic disease management, our EHR provides clinicians with the tools they need to deliver evidence-based, patient-centered care.
Designed specifically for Canadian healthcare providers, WeHealth EHR includes built-in support for provincial billing codes, bilingual English/French interfaces, and compliance with Canadian privacy legislation (PIPEDA, provincial health acts). The system integrates seamlessly with laboratory, imaging, and pharmacy systems using FHIR and HL7 standards.
