History
The Health Boards Secretariat was established in 1974 within the Finance and Administration Division of the Ministry of Health to provide financial and administrative support to the Health Boards. The Health Disciplines Act and the Denture Therapists Act of 1974 provided for the self-regulation of the five major health professions: medicine, dentistry, nursing, optometry and pharmacy. Government-appointed boards were also established as a final review body for the above health disciplines, as well as denture therapy and funeral services.
The Secretariat supports, or has supported, the following boards: Denture Therapists Appeal Board, Health Disciplines Board, Health Services Appeal and Review Board (which is an amalgamated tribunal composed of the former Health Facilities Appeal Board, Health Services Appeal Board, Health Protection Board, Nursing Homes Review Board, and Laboratory Review Board) Hospital Appeal Board, Psychiatric Review Boards, Ontario Criminal Code Review Board (formerly the Lieutenant-Governor's Board of Review), Health Professions Appeal and Review Board, and Ontario Hepatitis C Assistance Plan Review Board.
