In 1990, the YHC and its Board were created in preparation for the First Phase Transfer Agreement for health services between the Yukon Territorial Government and the Federal Government.
The YHC, Yukon Territorial Government (YTG), and the Council of Yukon Indians (CYI) (now known as Council of Yukon First Nations CYFN) entered into an agreement to create a First Nations Health Committee of the Board of Trustees. This was to ensure that any changes to programs offered by the Corporation would support self-government agreements for Yukon First Nations.
On April 1, 1993 the WGHÂ operations were officially transferred to the YHC. Construction started on the current building in 1994.
