Abbreviated appropriateness of care framework

This document outlines the Government of Saskatchewan’s Appropriateness of Care Framework in which the Health Quality Council supported work in this initiative. Saskatchewan’s health system leaders identified improving Appropriateness of Care as one of the key system priorities in 2013-14 by indicating that a provincial framework would be developed, with the intent that the framework will be broadly applied and widely used by clinicians and health care organizations across the continuum of care.
