FNHA AND BC TFA EVALUATIONS: HEARING FROM FIRST NATIONS IN BC

Introduction

Qatalyst Research Group, an independent consulting firm, has been hired by the FNHA to conduct two major concurrent evaluations:

Evaluation of the First Nations Health Authority (FNHA), which will tell the story of the FNHA’s progress against its mission, goals and strategies over the past five years, including aligning its health programs with First Nations perspectives and ways of knowing and being.
Evaluation of the BC Tripartite Framework Agreement (BC TFA), which will tell the story of the Health Governance Partnership’s progress over the past five years.

The evaluations will be completed in early 2025. They do not cover Health Benefits, including Pharmacy and Medical Transportation, which will be evaluated separately in the next two years.

The results of the evaluations will support decision-making, continuous learning, improvements at the FNHA, and partner efforts in learning, growing and maturing their relationship to advance shared goals.

Invitation to participate in a survey
We are surveying community members and health leaders to gather input on health programs and services and opportunities for improvement. This includes programs and services funded or delivered by the FNHA as well as those delivered by health system partners. Your views are critical to the evaluation.
