Data

Priority setting and resource allocation decisions are made based on data. Each year, the region compiles data on funded services, demographics of clients, epidemiological data, and the number of clients served and the number of units of services provided. The dictionary provides definitions and guidance on which subservices should be entered under each priority and the corresponding number of units of services.
