Summary and Analysis of Capacity/Utilization Results• Workloads can vary significantly from region to region
• Activities can vary significantly from province to province
• Analysis of “outliers” provides potential opportunities for process
improvement
• HPD staff continue to go “above and beyond” to help meet Healthcare
Outcomes for Veterans
