eResults - Health Care Providers

Set Up Access to Electronic Results

Nova Scotia Health Authority's Information Management & Technology Primary Health Care and Community Applications team (PHCCA) will assist eligible health care providers in completing the process to establish an electronic results delivery to their practice (e.g. lab and diagnostic imaging). There are three EMR options available in Nova Scotia: Accuro, Med Access and Practimax.

Requesting the delivery of Laboratory and Diagnostic Imaging Results for a Provider can take up to a month to complete. Providing the PHCCA team with as much advanced notice as possible and responding in a timely manner will ensure that you are added as quickly as possible. To start your e-results setup, please take the following steps:

  • Please complete the eResults Request Form, which includes the eResults Conditions of Appropriate Use agreement. One signature is required at the bottom of the form to consent to signing up for eResults and reviewing the appropriate conditions of eResults. 
  • Fax the eResults Request Form to the PHCCA team at 902-407-3019. Note: An incomplete form will delay processing. Please ensure that the form is signed and that ALL mandatory fields are completed.
  • Upon receipt of the completed eResults Request Form, the PHCCA team will contact you (within 2 business days) to confirm receipt, clarify required information and begin working with you to complete the e-results set up process.

Electronic Results Delivery - Change Requests

  • Changes to the Delivery of eResults (i.e. Re-routing/Terminating): Please complete the appropriate section of the eResults Reroute Form or eResults Termination Form. Fax the completed form to the PHCCA team at 902-407-3019 or scan & email the form to PHCCA@nshealth.ca. In order to have your printed Lab and DI reports faxed to your location, please fill out the Autofaxing form below. In the event of any EMR change or deactivation of eResults, your paper results will be engaged to ensure no disruption in receipt of results.
  • Stop Print Requests: Print results will continue to be mailed or faxed simultaneously with electronic results until the Provider submits a request to stop printing. Providers can send an email to PHCCA@nshealth.ca with their request to stop printing according to the guidelines outlined in the eResults Conditions of Appropriate Use.
