Medical staff rules revisions
The Health Authority Medical Advisory Committee (HAMAC) launched the HAMAC Governance Subcommittee in August. This subcommittee was tasked with reviewing and updating the VCH Medical Staff Rules (“Rules") to ensure they remain relevant, efficient and aligned with organizational goals. As part of this work, and in alignment with HAMAC's commitment to transparency and inclusivity, we are looking for your feedback on how the Rules have affected you and your practice.
For more information on the Rules update, see Call for Feedback on the VCH Medical Staff Rules.
How to Provide Feedback
Your feedback ensures the Rules reflect evolving needs of clinical and operational practice. Please reflect on your own experience with the Rules and provide feedback through the online form by November 27, 2025.
