2022 Board, Official Administrator & Committee Expenses Reports


Dr. John Cowell joined Alberta Health Services (AHS) as Official Administrator (OA) effective November 17, 2022, and is responsible for the governance of AHS in replacement of the previous Board, which has been dissolved.

Alberta Health Services amended existing travel and expense policies to align with the new policy released by the Alberta Government for travel, meal and hospitality expenses.

The Public Service Relocation and Employment Expenses Regulation (Alberta) outlines expense requirements for the OA. The Travel, Hospitality, and Working Session Expenses Policy includes the public disclosure of approved expense reports submitted by the AHS Board and Committee members, which are available below.

Both AHS’s Travel, Hospitality and Hosting Policy, and the Public Service Relocation and Employment Expenses Regulation for the OA, support this organization’s commitment to accountability, transparency and sound financial stewardship.

Note: Claims are reported after they are approved, which is why an expense may be posted several months after the transaction date. Transaction dates of all expenses are provided.
