These non-consolidated financial statements have been prepared for reporting purposes to the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care of Ontario. These non-consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Hospital’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these non-consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

  • TOH Information Systems Update October 2016
    TOH Information Systems Update October 2016 1. Introduction Recently, The Ottawa Hospital (TOH) was asked to provide a written summary of its views on the current and future value of Ontario’s digital health assets. This report is intended to provide a brief history of TOH information systems development, a synopsis of the current state and our plans for acquiring and implementing a Hospital Information System (HIS). Our future horizon is 3 – 5 years and includes a summary of key barriers and enablers. 2. A History of IS/IT at The Ottawa Hospital The Ottawa Hospital is a multi-campus organization resulting from a sudden and, for many, an unforeseen merger of three Ottawa-based hospitals in 1998 - The Ottawa General Hospital, The Ottawa Civic Hospital, and The Riverside Hospital, and the closure of a fourth hospital, the Salvation Army Grace Hospital. Both the General and the Civic hospitals had academic mandates affiliated with the University of Ottawa (uOttawa). The competition between the Civic and General was intense and the hostilities were deeply rooted right down to the frontline staff and physicians. Prior to the merger, each organization had its own IS/IT department and very little if anything in common for IS/IT solutions. Both organizations used a “best-of-breed” model, whereby individual software solutions were purchased or developed, configured, customized and integrated together into a more complete solution. Looking at Electronic Health Records solutions, the General had installed the OACIS (Open Architecture Clinical Information System) solution in 1995, which had recently been deployed using a Web browser client.
