Danielle Smith, the Premier of Alberta, made an administrative adjustment to several deputy ministers amid the ongoing controversy surrounding the Alberta Health Services (AHS). She also announced the launch of an independent third-party investigation to look into the issues related to health administration in the province.

According to CTV News, these adjustments come at a time when the healthcare sector in Alberta is facing operational and administrative challenges, prompting the government to take steps to ensure improved performance and accountability within health institutions.

The Alberta government confirmed that the independent investigation will help identify organizational and administrative issues within the health services authority, as well as provide recommendations to enhance efficiency and ensure the delivery of high-quality medical services to citizens.

This decision comes amid growing controversy over health administration and the policies in place, as the government faces criticism regarding its handling of health issues in the province.

The government is expected to reveal additional details about the investigation and the overseeing entities in the coming days, as part of its commitment to achieving transparency and accountability in the healthcare sector.
