Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions are for the Minister of Health and Social Services.
With respect to the service levels of therapy provided to clients:
1. How many hours of patient service are
provided in each respective therapy area by the client’s community in the NWT and out of Territory for the 2008-2009 fiscal year?
2. How many therapy service requests are
outstanding as of January 1, 2010, by community in and out of Territory?
3. Please provide details of the established
service limitations and/or caps for therapy services such as injuries, speech therapy, stroke recovery, slip and falls, et cetera, and whether those limitations are established by
the department, third-party insurers or Government of Nunavut.
4. Please provide the status of any agreements
with Nunavut for these services, the amount of billing undertaken for the last three fiscal years and the amount of outstanding receivables related to that billing.
