The Champlain Gl Endoscopy Central Intake Program was developed to benefit patients by:

  • Addressing the backlog of patients awaiting endoscopy as a result of COVID.
  • Improving patient access to timely endoscopy.
  • Ensuring patients are receiving the right test, for the right indication, at the right facility with the most appropriate specialist.
  • Enhancing communication, record keeping and continuity of care.
