IHDCYH IDSEA Signature Initiative Integrated Health Services BACKGROUND Lack of integration (vertical, horizontal, 3D) is a key deficiency in the Canadian health care system OBJECTIVES Vertical Integration - leverage provincial investment to achieve integration of services from primary to tertiary and policy; Horizontal Integration – catalyze translation of evidence into practice to improve care and outcomes; 3D Integration - incent Paediatric Hospitals to be truly “research” hospitals that support both basic and clinical research, and extend the culture and capacity to community. 2
