Show Notes
More on the developing and increasing crisis in Canada's healthcare system as 5 million Canadians have no family physician. Why has healthcare deteriorated to the extent Canadians are dying under-cared for, or while simply waiting for the most basic of care, including in hospital E.R.'s? Note: the federal government and provinces are closing in on a 10 year agreement to fund healthcare. The current and immediate past presidents of the Canadian Medical Association have told us twice in the past two weeks that more money for healthcare is not the only path to resolving healthcare crisis. Key would be change to the money following the patient.
Guest: Dr. Shawn Whatley. Past president, Ontario Medical Association. Author of When Politics Comes Before Patients: Why and How Canadian Medicare is Failing. and No More Lethal Waits: Ten Steps to Transform Canada's Emergency Departments.
