Medirex Systems Inc. (Medirex) is a Canadian owned and operated business that has connected patients to health informatics systems (HIS) for more than 50 years. We ensure patient safety through effective patient identification, and make it easy to manage your patient links – while always staying secure and affordable. And, we continuously improve and iterate based on robust feedback and analytics gathering.

We began as a small company offering custom forms to improve business processes in the healthcare sector. For years, we redesigned forms until technological change impacted the business environment leading to forms being mostly replaced by software solutions. Medirex embraced this change and adapted its solutions to manage patient safety through effective patient identification, and cultivate patient connections with ease, security and no errors. We are now recognized as a leader in patient connection solutions not only in Canada but also abroad.
