"This case study employed four broad approaches to understand how PSP and the DoFP are working together to support the creation of networks. These approaches included:
1. A review of local documentation that focused on the relationship structure and current work taking place to support the development of FP networks.
2. A literature review which reviewed over 50 research articles, policy and position documents, guidelines, and best practices to focus on understanding how other groups across Canada and the developed world have worked together in primary care to create networks within primary care. These findings are available in Appendix 3.
3. Interviews with key stakeholders at a local, regional and provincial level to understand the various factors (i.e. political, environmental, technological, legal) influencing the development of FP networks in the Thompson Region and BC more broadly. The list of individuals interviewed is included in Appendix 1.
4. A survey of the members of the Thompson Region DoFP which asked questions on their current levels of networking and areas for which they see opportunities to network."

"This is the full case study report for the Sunshine Coast Data Integration Case Study. The Sunshine Coast Data Integration Case Study explores work done to advance data integration across five primary care clinics using Med Access EMR. The project involved 38 family physicians on the Sunshine Coast who desired a technical solution to lacking information continuity for their patients, who they often see across multiple primary care settings with separate EMRs. While the project work stalled due to technical problems that emerged during the vendor engagement step, the case study offers previously unavailable insight into the expected project phases for large-scale data integration work, and typical challenges and enablers that might impede or maintain such initiatives."
