Comparison to provincial and regional health authority averages – Chronic diseases
The following chart compares the CHSA’s age-standardized incidence and lifetime prevalence rates for various chronic diseases with the provincial (BC) and corresponding regional health authority's (HA) rates. A negative value indicates that the CHSA rate is lower than the provincial or regional health authority rate while a positive value indicates that it is higher.
