Where did we come from? Pre-CIHI
“I was aware from the outset
that Canadian health
information was not in good
shape. My current
assessment is that it is in a
deplorable state… vast
amounts of health data are
recorded, but reliable
information is in much
shorter supply”.
Dr. Martin Wilk
Former Chief Statistician
Chair, National Task Force on Health Information
(1991)
1988: Creation of NHIC
1989: Creation of task force to
assess state of health information
in Canada
1991: Health Information for
Canada, 1991: A Report by the
National Task Force on Health
Information
Key recommendation: Creation of
an independent institute for health
information
