Newfoundland and Labrador Health Services (NL Health Services, NLHS) is the integrated health authority of Newfoundland and Labrador, tasked with the administration and delivery of health care services across the province.




History


The organization was established on April 3, 2023, from the merger of the province's previous 4 regional health authorities (Eastern Health, Central Health, Western Health, and Labrador-Grenfell Health), as well as the Newfoundland and Labrador Centre for Health Information (NLCHI). This merger was created following the passing of legislation proposed in 2022, enacted with the aim of consolidating the province's numerous regional health authorities into a single organization.
NL Health Services is governed by a board of trustees appointed by the provincial government via the Independent Appointments Commission.
