We’re excited to share recent progress on the Deceased Donor Management (DDM) Solution Deployment Project. Co-led by Infoway and the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI), this project is modernizing organ donation across Canada.

By automating the submission of data to CIHI’s Canadian Organ Donation and Transplantation Data System (CanODT), this project is also improving the quality and efficiency of organ donation data reporting across the country.

Since its launch, the project has made significant strides with solutions already in use across Canada’s jurisdictions. As jurisdictional adoption progresses, we expect to see a more efficient, transparent, and effective Organ Donation & Transplantation System in Canada.
