Canada’s Most Comprehensive Healthcare Directories

Trusted data infrastructure with actively maintained directories of healthcare facilities, clinicians, and services. Built to help primary care networks and healthcare leaders plan, attach, and coordinate care with confidence.

Data

The Context for Change

Canada’s primary care crisis demands better data

1 in 5 Canadian adults does not have a family doctor
Canada ranks last in primary care access among Commonwealth peers
53% of Canadian physicians report high levels of burnout (CMA, 2021)
Healthcare spending exceeds $340B annually — with silos and fragmentation driving inefficiency

The Empower Health Solution

A single source of truth for Canada’s healthcare system

Our actively maintained data enables healthcare leaders to:
Derisk patient attachment programs — align supply and demand with reliable clinician and clinic data
Strengthen proposals — write more compelling funding requests with current, comprehensive datasets
Build Primary Care Networks — identify and engage local physicians, coordinate programs, and manage attachment
Improve planning and reporting — track outcomes, demonstrate impact, and adapt strategies with confidence
Core Advantages:
Actively Maintained — Updated at least quarterly, with thousands of weekly touchpoints and multiple layers of human and automated verification
Comprehensive — More care types, specialties, and attributes than any other source, including accepting status and availability
Accessible — Delivered via web interface or API, designed for easy integration with CRMs, ESRI/arcGIS tools, call centre dashboards, spreadsheets, or workflows you already use
Ongoing service — Continuously refreshed so healthcare leaders always have the most current view of the system
