S-4.2 - Act respecting health services and social services

Full text
520.3.0.1. The Minister may, by agreement, retain the services of an agency, body or other person for the purpose of keeping and managing, for each of the institutions to which section 185.1 applies, the information they collect under that section, extracting the information to be supplied to the Minister under section 431.2, and processing and managing that data for statistical purposes so the Minister may assess whether the waiting time for a specialized medical service is unreasonable or about to become so. The agreement may authorize the provider to communicate the statistics to the agencies.
The agreement must stipulate that the provider has the same obligations towards the Minister and the institutions concerned, with respect to the information from users’ records that is communicated to the provider by the institutions, as those set out in the second, third and fourth paragraphs of section 27.1.
