SERVICES PAY DIRECTIVE: 1989-141 (47)
October 30, 1989 Ottawa,
Canada K1A 0S5
SUBJECT: Alberta Health Care
1
|
PURPOSE
|
1.1
|
The purpose of this directive is to advise you of a new policy regarding the
submission of documentation to Alberta Health Care.
|
2
|
BACKGROUND
|
2.1
|
Departments currently attach necessary Alberta Health Care documentation to
input submitted to the pay office when requesting the deduction to be started,
stopped, or amended. Once the requested action is processed, this documentation
is then forwarded by the pay office to Alberta Health Care.
|
2.2
|
Alberta Health Care policy regarding the effective date of certain changes
processed (e.g. additions, deletions) is based on the date they receive the
request in their office. Therefore, in order to avoid any delays, Alberta
Health Care requested that departments forward a photocopy of the documents to
them, at the same time as submitting the originals to the pay office. However,
since it appears that this request is not always complied with, it has been
decided to revise this procedure.

|
POLICY
|
3.1
|
Alberta Health Care documentation should no longer be forwarded to the pay
office with the pay input documentation to start, stop or amend a deduction.
Original documentation should be sent directly to Alberta Health
Care.

|
PROCEDURES/INSTRUCTIONS
|
4.1
|
Immediately upon submission of the required pay input to the pay office,
departments should forward originals of all pertinent Alberta Health Care
documentation directly to:
|
Alberta Health Care 10025 Jasper Avenue Box
1360 Edmonton, Alberta T5J 2N3
|
|
4.2
|
Departments should continue to retain copies of all documents forwarded to
Alberta Health Care.
|
4.3
|
Alberta Health Care would also like to remind all departments that, if the
department and payroll fields are left blank on incoming documents, the input
will reject from their system. Furthermore, officials will be unable to contact
the personnel office of origin to obtain the missing information, and,
therefore, the document will not be processed by Alberta Health
Care.
