SEAMO should continue to focus on strong financial management, enhanced transparency and enriched accountability.

For the last several years, SEAMO has focused on the development and implementation of an Accountability Framework.

Moving forward, the goal is to refine and enhance accountability metrics, develop a centre-wide physician resource plan and strengthen departmental practice plans through the development of standardized templates.

Additionally, the Resources Committee will lead a review of the current physician compensation framework.

These activities will be carried out by SEAMO sub-committees with the involvement of the hospitals and the clinical departments of SEAMO.
