Health Minister Adriana LaGrange announced the new Primary Care Alberta agency on Tuesday .

The new agency is coming at a delicate juncture for health-care professionals.

AUPE vice-president Sandra Azocar says the news leaves key questions unanswered.

The changeover happens as negotiations are at an impasse at all the health care tables without movement by the government.

LaGrange promised more details would be forthcoming on a public-facing website.

The health system is being broken up into four organizations — Recovery Alberta (addiction and mental health), Primary Care Alberta , acute care and continuing care, plus a monitoring organization.

“Primary care still needs to be able to intersect very closely with acute care, continuing care and, of course, Recovery Alberta as well,” LaGragange said.
