The Alberta WebSMR provides healthcare institutions with a simple standardized electronic means of capturing surgical medical records.
The Alberta WebSMR provides a vehicle to facilitate the adoption of information system and will help to advance the implementation of an integrated electronic medical record in Alberta.
Surgeons can access the following templates on line: Adrenal, Breast, Cervix, Colon, Gallbladder/Biliary Tumours, Gastric, Head and Neck, Liver, Melanoma, Ovarian/Fallopian, Parathyroid, Periampullary/Pancreas, Rectal, Retroperitoneal, Sarcoma, Thyroid and Uterine.
Empowering Surgeons
Alberta WebSMR provides healthcare institutions with a simple standardized electronic means of capturing surgical medicals records. Its simple interactive questionnaire design makes it easy for surgeons to to file consistent reports from anywhere at anytime and is an example of an active electronic patient record component for an electronic health record.
Developed almost entirely by the previous Alberta Cancer Board and health region clinicians, the Alberta WebSMR provides a vehicle to facilitate the adoption of information system technology and will help to advance the implementation of an integrated electronic medical record in Alberta. A surgical report can be printed based on the Alberta WebSMR at any time, and it replaces the need for a surgeon to create standard reports through dictation or other measures.
The Alberta WebSMR is also an important educational tool for surgeons across the province because it provides surgeons with a data set to improve techniques or to identify areas in which continuing education and training may be required, improving overall cancer surgery patient care.
Implementation of the Alberta WebSMR across the health regions is a key initiative of Alberta Health Services as part of its multi-year performance agreement with Alberta Health and Wellness.
Alberta WebSMR implementation is well underway and the program will continue to roll out province wide.
