MyPI is set-up to work for groups

MyPI is set-up to help with both large and small projects. Whether you want to help physicians document their activity as part of a large provincial wide initiative, or as a local peer group.

MyPI offers the following project types:

Templated Activity

These projects are based on common scenarios/clinical practice guidelines and include additional coaching/ideas. Ideal for large provincial initiatives and changes in best practices, to provide physicians with targeted coaching and ability to change their practice.

Group Practice Improvement Projects

These projects allow groups to help physicians get a head start on a documenting a specific activity. This is an ideal option for when there are predetermined measures of interest and scope of work, which MyPI can help populate so that the physician can focus on reflection rather than administrative burden.
