Canada Health Action: The final report of the National Forum on Health by National Forum on Health (Canada) Pdf

Presents a volume of a report of a forum held to advise the federal government on innovative ways to improve the health system and the health of Canadians. The forum focused on long-term and systemic issues in four key areas: values, striking a balance, determinants of health, and evidence-based decision-making. The volume begins with a summary assessment of the current health system, the attitudes of Canadians regarding the health system, and deficiencies in health system decision-making. It then sets out priorities for action in three areas: preserving the health system by doing things differently; transforming knowledge about health into action; and using better evidence to make better decisions. Finally, it discusses the mobilization of resources to address those priorities.

Canada Health Action: Synthesis reports and issues papers by National Forum on Health (Canada) Pdf

This document presents the detailed analysis and rationale, as well as recommendations, that led to the National Forum on Health priorities (outlined in Volume I) for ways to improve Canada's health system and the health of people in Canada. The document contains the individual synthesis papers developed by each of the Forum working groups. The Values working group sought to understand the values and principles that Canadians hold about health and health care, so that the system continues to reflect and respond to those values. The Striking A Balance working group considered how to allocate society's limited resources to best protect, restore, and promote the health of Canadians, with attention to the balance of resources within the health sector and between the health sector and other sectors of the economy. The Determinants Of Health group consulted specialists to assist in identifying appropriate actions on the non-medical determinants of health. The working group on Evidence-Based Decision Making considered how individuals, practitioners, and policy makers can have access to and utilize the best available evidence in making decisions. The document also contains issue-specific papers on an Aboriginal health institute, pharmaceutical policy, and women's health.

Chronic Condition by Jeffrey Simpson Pdf

Medicare is the third rail of Canadian politics. Touch it and you die. Every politician knows this truism, which is why no one wants to debate it. Privately, many of them understand that the health care system, which costs about $200 billion a year in public and private money, cannot continue as it is-increasingly ill-adapted to an aging population with public costs growing faster than government revenues. In Chronic Condition, Jeffrey Simpson meets health care head on and explores the only four options we have to end this growing crisis: cuts in spending, tax increases, privatization, and reaping savings through increased efficiency. He examines the tenets of the Medicare system that Canadians cling to so passionately. Here, he finds that many other countries have more extensive public health systems, and Canadian health care produces only average value for money. In fact, our rigid system for some health care needs and a costly system for other needs-drugs, dentistry, and home care-is really the worst of both worlds. Chronic Condition breaks the silence about the huge changes and real choices that Canadians face.
