The eConsult Centre of Excellence at The Ottawa Hospital (TOH) developed Triaging Referrals to eConsult (TReC), embedding specialist advice into routine referral workflows within health information systems (HIS). Following a successful proof-of-concept, TReC expanded to Women's College Hospital (WCH) in 2023 and the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) in 2025. We applied the RE-AIM framework to evaluate implementation across study the three study sites. Reach was assessed by utilization; effectiveness by response times and surveys; adoption by specialist participation; implementation by delivery and cost; maintenance by ongoing use. Data sources included administrative data and surveys of patients and providers. Specialist participation included 160 at TOH, 22 at WCH, and 26 at CHEO. Since launch, >10,000 eConsults were completed at TOH, >880 at WCH, and >360 at CHEO, spanning 15, 8, and 10 clinical areas, respectively. Median response times ranged from 2-8 days across sites, versus Ontario's 23-week average for in-person care. Median cost per TReC case was $37 CAD (10 minutes spent per case), substantially lower than in-person visits. Surveys showed high acceptability: 84% of referring providers at TOH and 91% at WCH found advice actionable; 70% of TOH patients felt concerns were addressed; and 91% of TOH specialists perceived TReC to improve access. TReC scaled successfully across three hospitals and improved timely access. High acceptability supports expansion and potential to improve equitable access across Ontario. Future evaluation will assess post-TReC healthcare utilization.</p>","PeriodicalId":94357,"journal":{"name":"Studies in health technology and informatics","volume":"334 ","pages":"35-41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146183988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper asks: what information architecture supports representing care as a dynamic, multi-domain, intent-driven process? Drawing on empirical failure modes (appointment scheduling, referrals, labs, medication processes) identified in primary care in Canada, along with other care failures (e.g. guideline misapplication, discharge lapses), we derive functional and technical requirements. We evaluate four candidate architectures against these requirements. We find that only knowledge graphs satisfy the combination of semantic linkage, schema flexibility, state tracking, longitudinal reasoning, and explainability. We then discuss regulatory, governance, and vendor implications. Knowledge graphs offer a promising path forward toward truly interoperable, safe, and patient-centered care.</p>","PeriodicalId":94357,"journal":{"name":"Studies in health technology and informatics","volume":"334 ","pages":"93-97"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146184047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
