For patients and caregivers

You should not have to be your own medical courier.

If you see more than one provider, you already know what this is. The printouts. The repeated questions. The test you had done twice because the first result never arrived.

Your health record, wherever you go

You have answered the same questions at every appointment, because nobody can see what anyone else wrote down. You have carried your own history between offices — in a folder, on your phone, in your memory — and been made to feel difficult for arriving with printouts. Your record exists. You are just not the one who can reach it.

Your medications, conditions, allergies, results and visit history, in one place you can open. At a new specialist. In another province. At two in the morning when you cannot remember which dose changed in March.

You choose who sees it. You choose for how long. You can see everyone who looked, and you can take it back at any time.

The layer in between

MedUnity is the trusted infrastructure between Canada’s health custodians and the patients whose records they hold. It is the Canadian-owned layer that lets a patient bring the fragments together and direct who sees what, for how long, and why.

Every access is refused unless the patient permitted it, and every access is recorded in a ledger nobody — including MedUnity — can alter.

Not a competing record. Not another silo. The rails, the consent, and the proof.

What you can actually do

  • We do

    Open it anywhere

    Your medications, conditions, allergies, results, visits and documents in one place, on a phone or a computer.

  • We do

    Share a part, not the whole

    Category by category. A physiotherapist can have your conditions without your mental health history.

  • We do

    Set an end date

    Access ends on its own. Nothing stays open because somebody forgot to close it.

  • We do

    Take it back

    Revoking is immediate, and it reaches a screen that is already open.

  • We do

    See who looked

    Every read, by every person, with the time and the reason. It is the most important screen in the product.

  • We do

    Keep something to yourself

    A journal entry marked private is unreachable. No permission, no emergency, no institutional authority and no configuration reaches it.

Share with someone you chose

You pick a person, choose which parts of your record they can see, and choose how long for. Then you can see exactly what you agreed to. Three decisions, each one yours.

  1. Step 1 of 4

    You start from a person. Sharing is always with someone specific, never with "anyone who asks".

    Share with this person
  2. Step 2 of 4

    You choose what they can see, one category at a time. Here, medications and allergies. Nothing else is included unless you tick it.

    What can they see?

    Choose only what they need. You can change this later by ending it and starting again.

  3. Step 3 of 4

    You choose for how long — here, thirty days. It is part of the decision, not a setting you have to go looking for.

    How long can they see it?

    There is no default. Choose the shortest time that works.

  4. Step 4 of 4

    Done. You can see who has access, to what, and until when.

Take it back

Every arrangement has a Stop sharing button. You press it, read one honest sentence about what stopping does and does not do, and confirm. It ends at once, including on a screen they already have open. There is nothing to choose and nobody to ask.

  1. Step 1 of 3

    Every arrangement has its own Stop sharing button. Not in a menu, not behind a setting.

  2. Step 2 of 3

    One honest sentence: stopping ends their access from now on, but cannot un-see what they already saw. No reason to give, nothing to type.

    Stop sharing?

    This stops them seeing anything from now on. It does not undo what they have already seen — anything they looked at, they have seen, and they may have written it into their own records.

    Yes, stop sharing
  3. Step 3 of 3

    It has ended. Immediately, and on a screen they already had open.

    Ended — you stopped it

The questions people actually ask

What happens in an emergency, if I cannot speak?

A clinician can reach a short, fixed list — your allergies, your active medications, your active conditions, your emergency contacts. Not your whole record. Never your journal. It is time-limited, it is recorded permanently, and you are told it happened. We do not prevent emergency access. We make it impossible to take quietly.

How do I find my doctor on here?

By name, by the practice address, by city, by institution, or by their MedUnity Number. We never ask for your health card number, and we do not collect one.

Can someone at MedUnity read my record?

No. There is no screen for it and no way to build one without deleting a test that exists to stop it. If you want our help with something, you grant us access yourself, for a set time, and you can see it and take it back.

Can a family member help me manage this?

Yes. A caregiver acts with your permission, on the terms you set, and their access appears in your log the same way anyone else’s does.

What if a record about me is wrong?

You can ask for a correction. It goes to the professional or clinic who wrote it, because they are accountable for what they wrote. Nothing is ever quietly edited or deleted — a correction is a new entry that supersedes the old one, and both remain visible.

Is it in French?

Yes. English and Canadian French ship together, from the first line of code. Not one and then the other.

Not open to patients yet

MedUnity is in its pilot phase. It holds no patient health information today, and it will not until there is a named, accountable custodian for it and an independent privacy review is complete.
