Alright, Herle Burly-ites. A big topic today, that’s got me pretty keyed up. If you follow me on Twitter, you know that already. I want to do a thorough discussion, here on the pod, on where healthcare in Canada should and shouldn’t go. So let’s get right to it with our guests.
Dr. Danielle Martin has been with us here once before, helping us get some clarity in the early days of the pandemic. She is a Professor and Chair of the Department of Family and Community Medicine, Temerty Faculty of Medicine at the University of Toronto. Dr. Martin also holds a Masters from the School of Public Policy and Governance at U of T. Her policy, clinical and academic expertise, combined with her commitment to health equity, has made her a highly regarded health system leader here in Canada.
And Professor Greg Marchildon, Ontario Research Chair in Health Policy and System Design at the University of Toronto Institute of Health Policy, Management and Evaluation. Greg has also been a noted public servant, and the Executive Director of the Royal Commission on the future of Health Care in Canada … an author of the Romanow Report. He was appointed to the Order of Canada, last year.
So today … a solutions-oriented conversation on the health of our healthcare system. For Profit Delivery … does it help? What’s should its role be? How much money is required here? Why can’t money alone fix the system? What are other jurisdictions doing successfully or unsuccessfully? Not only in the U.S. but hybrid public/private systems in Europe. Is it true they’re equitable and how do they work? What should the provinces be doing with their increase in health funding?
