About British Columbia's Health Authorities
B.C.'s health authorities are committed to building a high-quality, patient-centred and sustainable health care system that is:
- equitable, with access to a coordinated range of local, regional and provincial services for all British Columbians, regardless of where they live in the province;
- effective and efficient, with services coordinated within regions large enough to recruit and retain health professionals and achieve economies of scale;
- governed by strong leaders, with board members chosen for their leadership skills, decision-making abilities and willingness to be accountable for desired outcomes; and
- accountable with clearly articulated and conscientiously monitored performance measures and targets.
- five health authorities that govern, plan and coordinate services regionally within 16 health service delivery areas and participate with;
- one Provincial Health Services Authority, which coordinates and/or provides provincial programs and specialized services, such as cardiac care and transplants.
This structure, introduced in December 2001, modernized a complicated, confusing and expensive health care system by merging the previous 52 health authorities into a streamlined governance and management model.

About Manitoba 's Health Authority
Manitoba's health care system is a broad network of services and programs. Overseeing this system is Manitoba Health, a department of the provincial government. For the most part, the actual services are delivered through your local regional health authority - one of eleven regional agencies set up by the province to meet the local needs of Manitobans.
The decision to regionalize the operation and administration of health in Manitoba was a major change in the way that health care is planned and delivered. In this model, the regional health authorities are responsible within the context of broad provincial policy direction, for assessing and prioritizing needs and health goals, and developing and managing an integrated approach to their own health care system.
The Regional Health Authorities Act legislation came into force in 1997. It sets out the conditions under which the RHAs are incorporated, as well as defining duties and responsibilities of the RHAs and the Minister of Health. Both parties are responsible for policy, assessment of health status and ensuring effective health planning and delivery
