Alberta Minister of Primary and Preventative Health Services Adriana LaGrange discusses her government's historic legislation introducing a dual private-public health model for physicians. She explains the structural problems plaguing Alberta's health-care system, how the new model could allow doctors to switch between public and private practice, and the guardrails being proposed to protect universal access. She also addresses concerns about privatization by pointing to successful European models, arguing that innovation and flexibility are essential to reducing wait times and transforming Alberta into a health-care leader.
