Reporting Health Performance
The Nova Scotia Dept. of Health has been developing a Performance Reporting System to collect and communicate information on various aspects of health and health care. This document demonstrates the scope and functioning of this System and presents the initial results of a new measure that will assist in monitoring waiting times for elective procedures. The document outlines some issues related to waiting times, different approaches to their measurement, and provides detailed descriptions of waiting times over the past four years in selected major procedural categories. Included are groups of procedures performed by different surgical specialties, procedures for specific conditions, volumes of procedures, and variations between health regions. Finally, the document reviews strategies that can be employed to monitor and, where necessary, reduce waiting times.

Nova Scotia
Despite notable variation in health care policy from province to province, most scholarship published on the health care system in Canada uses a broad national perspective. Focusing on the health care systems of individual Canadian provinces and territories, our new series, Health System Profiles, examines the social, political, economic, and epidemiological context of health care policy in each Canadian province. Turning a critical eye to the health care system in Nova Scotia, author Katherine Fierlbeck outlines the organizational and regulatory frameworks structuring provincial health care, while providing a detailed assessment of Nova Scotia’s health financing, physical infrastructure, service provision, and the efficacy of technological resources used in data tracking and health quality assessments. Structured for ease of comparison, Nova Scotia: A Health System Profile will, along with other volumes in the series, help scholars draw analytic evidence-based policy conclusions about the health system of Nova Scotia and other Canadian provinces and territories.
