Health Professions and Occupations Act (HPOA) and College Bylaws Consultation

Since April, Doctors of BC has asked for your input on our advocacy with government on the Health Professions and Occupations Act (HPOA) and the BC College of Physicians and Surgeons’ draft bylaws that will put the legislation into action. (See Timeline in sidebar for more information.)


College Bylaws

Your input on four successive rounds of draft bylaws, and our draft response to the College on these, supported the work of the Council on Health Economics and Policy (CHEP)—the advisory body to the Board on HPOA-related matters. We submitted our formal response to the College by its August 31, 2025 deadline and continue to advance our work on your behalf.
