A 10-year deal to turn over administration of New Brunswick's 8-1-1 Telehealth service and the Extra-Mural nursing program to Medavie Health Services has been announced by the provincial government, thereby integrating the services of Ambulance New Brunswick, the Extra-Mural Program and Tele-Care 811 to help manage primary healthcare needs. The public service entity will be managed by Medavie Health Services New Brunswick in hopes of providing better coordination and collaboration among healthcare providers through a team approach. Other anticipated results include more person-centred care for patients, improved prevention and management of chronic conditions, more appropriate use of ambulance transportation, and fewer emergency room visits and hospitalizations.
