The Chronic Disease Registry allows for a provincial approach to identifying new and existing chronic disease patients, as well as information about how these patients are being managed, their health service utilization, health outcomes and health costs. The registry includes seven chronic conditions: diabetes, asthma, COPD, heart failure, hypertension, ischemic heart disease, and stroke. The Registry leverages definitions from the Canadian Chronic Disease Surveillance System and incorporates additional data where available (e.g., laboratory data is included in the diabaetes registry). |
