Contribution Audits
Health Canada performs audits on funding that has been provided
through contribution agreements to ensure accountability to the
terms and conditions of the agreements.
The Health Policy Research Program (HPRP) funds academic research
that is directly relevant to key current and future health policy
issues. For information on projects audited through this program
relating to First Nations and Inuit health, please see Health
Policy Research Contribution Audits.
The First Nations & Inuit Health Branch provides funding for
health services to First Nations and Inuit communities through
contribution and transfer agreements.
What's the difference between contribution and transfer agreements?
- A Contribution Agreement (now called the Consolidated Contribution
Agreement - General) does not allow communities to re-prioritize
or redirect health resources.
- Health Services Transfer Agreements (now called the Consolidated
Contribution Agreement for First Nations and Inuit Transferred
Organizations/Communities) offers more authority and control
of health resources and thus requires a different set of accountability
measures.
To learn about why and how audits are conducted, as well as summaries
of past contribution audits, please see Consolidated
Contribution Agreement Audits.
