This Alberta bill overhauls the province's health statutes by restructuring the Alberta Health Care Insurance Act into multiple parts, creating a new framework for physician participation in the provincial health plan (replacing the old 'opted in/opted out' system with 'participating,' 'flexibly participating,' and 'non-participating' categories), establishing a new Insured Hospital Services Plan, modernizing health information and privacy rules, and updating enforcement tools including significantly higher fines and new administrative penalties across several health Acts.
