Services Authority
Patients are our first priority
The British Virgin Islands Health Services Authority
(BVIHSA) is a semi-autonomous, statutory body that
oversees the Territory’s main hospital, the new Pee-
bles Hospital on Tortola, and nine community clinics
on the islands of Tortola, Jost Van Dyke, Virgin Gorda,
and Anegada. The BVIHSA is part of the Territory’s Na-
tional Health Insurance scheme and, as the preferred
provider of health services to the island’s residents
and guests, its funding comes through the Social Se-
curity Board.
The BVIHSA is managed by a Board of Directors ap-
pointed by the Minister of Health and Social Develop-
ment and is administered by CEO, Darlene Baptiste,
