Doctors of B.C. president Dr. Ahmer Karimuddin says the new system will allow practitioners to review and accept new patients online, instead of spending time filling out lengthy paperwork.

"This is actual progress. This is actual hope," he said.

Wow conservatives would never implement this as they love the inefficiencies while demanding healthcare be privatized.
