This Privacy Impact Assessment (“PIA”) was conducted on behalf of the Yukon Department of Health and Social Services (“HSS”) on the current standing of the Panorama system. Panorama is a web-based public health information management tool that provides authorized public health users with the ability to collect, share and analyze a wide range of public health information that is critical for addressing public health problems. Panorama supports public health programs such as immunization, and communicable disease, outbreak management, inventory and family health. Panorama is a point-of-service system accessed by the service providers who deliver these services, conduct health surveillance activities, such as the monitoring of infectious diseases, and perform program evaluation within British Columbia (BC) and Yukon.
Panorama is organized as seven major functional components:
• Communicable disease investigation management,
• Outbreak management,
• Immunization management,
• Materials / Vaccine Inventory management,
