Little is known, however, about how the various types of knowledge are managed to optimize their use in decision-making.

The study is guided by a qualitative research design. It is concluded that Regional Health Authorities (RHAs) in Canada pursue a codification strategy more strongly than a personalization strategy of managing knolwedge at their disposal in decision making. Further, knowledge management practices and strategies were in place, despite the absence of a stated knowledge management policy.
