Data Use Notice:

I understand that the following data will be collected for reporting purposes:

1. In order to meet Ministry of Health (MOH) funding deliverables, ECHO UHN collects participant data for quarterly and annual reports that are submitted directly to the MOH. Any public dissemination outside of the MOH is anonymized. If ECHO UHN shares any documents for use outside of MOH reporting, participant name will be removed but the name of the organization will be included. Those working independently will be identified as “Solo Practitioner”. Any quotes that may be shared outside of MOH reporting will be identified as “[Profession], [ECHO Name]”.

2. In order to support quality improvement and quality assurance, the ECHO Ontario Superhub collects participation data for each ECHO program in Ontario, including ECHO UHN. This data allows ECHO Ontario to measure, analyze, and report on the model’s reach within Ontario. Your data will be used in reports for quality improvement and quality assurance purposes. If shared for use outside of Superhub reporting, participant name will be removed but the name of the organization will be included.

3. In order to support the growth of the ECHO model, the Project ECHO Institute at the University of New Mexico, USA collects attendance for each ECHO program globally, including ECHO UHN. This data allows the Project ECHO Institute to measure, analyze, and report on the reach and impact of the program internationally. Your participation data, including name, organization name, organization address and ECHO session attendance, will be shared. Aggregated data (at a program level) will be used in reports, for quality assurance/improvement activities, and for decision-making related to new initiatives. If you would like to opt-out of this, please contact a member of our team.

The statement of collaboration may be downloaded by clicking here

Patient Relationship Disclaimer: ECHO case presentations do not create or establish provider-patient client relationship between any ECHO Hub Clinician and a patient whose case is presented.

Commitment to Collaboration: Recommendations from the Hub do not in any way replace my own diligence and professional expertise with respect to my patients or clients. University Health Network and its officers, directors, employees, subcontractors and agents accept no responsibility or liability for any treatment decisions I make as a result of my participation, or association with ECHO UHN. I agree to be solely responsible for the treatment of my patients and understand that all clinical decisions rest with me regardless of recommendations provided by the expert hub team and other ECHO participants.

De-identified Information Notice and Confidentiality: Personal identifying information is not to be shared during ECHO sessions. If this does occur, I'll follow my own organization's policies and procedures to address the privacy breach.

Participation Notice: I and/or my organization (Spoke) will participate in as many sessions as possible during the curriculum to maximize my learning experience. I understand that case discussions are part of every session and that I, or a member of my team, will be expected to present at least 1 (one) de-identified patient case.

Recording, Photographs and Guests: The ECHO team records sessions for educational purposes and occasionally takes photos for promotional purposes. I give permission for my photos to be used unless explicitly requested in writing
