Opal - Patient in the loop

Opal - Health Informatics Group

About this app

Opal is a patient-in-the-loop data platform. It brings you, or the caregivers you choose, into the loop about your healthcare. Using Opal, you can play an active role in your care, make informed decisions about your care, and share your healthcare data with your healthcare providers and informal caregivers. You can also access the data of your family members if they allow you to have access.

Depending on your hospital, Opal may also provide you with virtual check-in and appointment call in so that you do not need to wait in the waiting room.

For a detailed list of participating clinics and their instructions on how to register, see: https://research.registration.opalmedapps.ca/#!/welcomePage.
