Health authority performance monitoring files
- GR-3512
- Series
- 1993-2010
The series documents the monitoring of health authority compliance with performance agreements and expectations. The records were created between 1993 and 2008 by the Health Authorities division of the Ministry of Health. Some of the records were in the custody of the Health Services division and subsequently the Health Service Policy division, the successor bodies to the Health Authorities division, prior to their transferal to the Archives, However, due to the dates of record creation, it appears that all the records were originally created by the Health Authorities division.
The series consists of reports, performance reviews, agreements, presentations, correspondence, briefing notes, and meeting records. The series also consists of several CD-ROMs. The archivist determined that these were not original records created by the Health Authorities division and has chosen not to print the records, unless otherwise noted in the file. The CDs are included in the files.
Files regard heath authorities; hospitals across the province; specific medical procedures, treatments, diseases or conditions; health associations and charities; healthcare planning; and other healthcare initiatives.
The records are arranged according to the original BC Government ORCS classification scheme and their physical location in their boxes. Records may be grouped roughly by date, alphabetically by file code or by Health Authority. Health Authorities may be abbreviated in the file list as follows:
Provincial Health Authority (PHA)
Fraser Health Authority (FHA)
Interior Health Authority (IHA)
Northern Health Authority (NHA)
Vancouver Coastal Health Authority (VCHA)
Vancouver Island Health Authority (VIHA)
Except in cases where records were clearly misclassified, the records within this series have been included based on their ORCS number. Records in all accessions were heavily interfiled which has led to significant cross-over between the series, and in many cases, there is clear evidence of misclassification of records. Researchers are advised to consult finding aids for the following related series in order to better and more fully understand the records : GR-3513, 3514, 3515, and GR-3516.
Records in series GR-3512 are covered by ORCS 25340-30 of the Health Authority Performance Management schedule (schedule 122352).
