The regional network, which will serve patients and provide support to medical homes in a geographical area similar to the current Calgary Zone, will be formed as part of an “evolution and expansion” of the area’s seven Primary Care Networks.
Calgary is due to be part of the second of three phases of regional network standup, with Southeast and Southwest Alberta scheduled to be formed in phase one in spring 2026. Calgary and Central are due to follow in late spring or early summer 2026, with Northeast, Northwest and Edmonton scheduled for late summer 2026.
The formal process of PCNs transitioning into regional networks is underway:
- The Ministry of Primary and Preventative Health Services, formerly known as Alberta Health, is leading the legal aspect of the transition.
- Primary Care Alberta is responsible for the operational implementation of regional networks, which includes creating implementation teams and an operating model.
Calgary is one of seven regional networks being established as part of the Modernizing Alberta’s Primary Health Care System (MAPS) initiative, which aims to enhance access to comprehensive, team-based care across the province.
