Welcome to the ARP PMO

Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide the highest level of service to all parties (trilateral partners, physicians, AHS zone representatives) to coordinate the Alternate Relationship Plan program in Alberta.

Who are we?

An Alternate Relationship Plan Program Management Office (ARP PMO) has been established by Alberta Health and Wellness (AHW), the Alberta Medical Association (AMA) and Alberta Health Services (AHS) through a 2006 amendment to the Trilateral Master Agreement to support clinical Alternate Relationship Plan (ARP) program activities. The ARP PMO is responsible to the trilateral Physician Services Committee (PSC) for activities related to delivery of program services.

How Can We Assist You?

The ARP Program Management Office was created by the trilateral partners (AHW, AMA and AHS) to assist physicians and AHS throughout the investigation, application, implementation and operational phases of a clinical ARP. Our goal is to assist all parties in developing, implementing and fulfilling the requirements of the ARP program in Alberta. We work with physician applicants and AHS to determine whether an ARP fits with the needs of the patient population and the individual situation. The ARP PMO staff member assigned to work with your group will support your initial investigation of whether an ARP option is right for you, draft (or assist you in drafting) your application for review, work with you through the trilateral review and approval process to answer any questions that arise, and assist where needed with implementation and ongoing operational reporting.
