These maps should only be referenced when accessing overall information on Health Networks in Saskatchewan. What are Health Networks? Health Networks are collaborative teams of health professionals, including physicians, and community partners providing fully integrated services to meet the health needs of individuals and communities. Are the Health Network geographies just new boundaries, like the former regions? No. The geographical boundaries within these maps are for internal operations only, and are not meant to inhibit the provision of patient care, as patients will be able to seamlessly move between networks as required. Health Networks support our large provincial organization to maintain local connections with the people we serve. Patients and citizens do not need to know which network they are in, to receive appropriate care. How were Health Network geographies determined? The process for development of geographies for the SHA was data‐driven and community informed. There was oversight from the tri‐partite bodies of Health Network Advisory Committee (HNAC) and the Network Program Oversight Group (NPOG), both of which are co‐lead between SHA, SMA, and Ministry of Health. .
