While Canadians are proud of their healthcare system, the reality
is that it is fragmented and disorganized. Instead of a
pan-Canadian system, it is a "system of systems" - thirteen
provincial and territorial systems and a federal system. As a
result, Canadian healthcare has not only become one of the
costliest in the world, but is falling well behind many developed
countries in terms of quality. Canadians increasingly realize that
their healthcare system is no longer fiscally sustainable, yet
change remains elusive. The standard claim is that Canada's
multijurisdictional approach makes system-wide reform nearly
impossible. Toward a Healthcare Strategy for Canadians disputes
this reasoning, making the case for a comprehensive, system-wide,
made-in-Canada healthcare strategy. It looks at the mechanics of
change and suggests ways in which the various participants in the
system - governments, healthcare professionals, the private sector,
and patients - can work collaboratively to transform a second-rate
system. Addressing critical issues of health human resources,
electronic health records, integrated care, and pharmacare, Toward
a Healthcare Strategy for Canadians shows how a system-wide
strategic approach to this crucial policy area can make a
difference in Canada's healthcare system in the future.
