Software Developer

Project Overview

Two Sr Software Developers are required to enhance SADIE EMR functionality through the addition of delegate and designate functionality. This project will also add electronic medical record functionality to Health Information System (HIS). This initiative, a collaborative effort between Ontario Health, the Ministry of Health (Health Programs & Delivery Division, Health Services I&IT Cluster), and OntarioMD, aims to optimize administrative processes for prescribers across the province. The two (2) Developer resources will provide programming skills for the enhancement of SADIE EMR functionality.
