Newfoundland and Labrador Health Services (NL Health Services, NLHS) is the integrated health authority of Newfoundland and Labrador, [1] tasked with the administration and delivery of health care services across the province.
The organization was established on April 3, 2023, from the merger of the province's previous 4 regional health authorities (Eastern Health, Central Health, Western Health, and Labrador-Grenfell Health), as well as the Newfoundland and Labrador Centre for Health Information (NLCHI).
