Well, AB is certainly leading the charge. Nobody else can do it so it is sorta by definition.
As for better access? Well, is it? Why are things getting worse? Another 90 days?
With such a 've statement I am assuming you will take full responsibility if it backfires. Right?
Alberta is leading the way to give Albertans better access to the care they need. Thatβs why weβre taking action.
β
Adding thousands of doctors and nurses, funding 50,000 more surgeries, planning new hospital towers in Edmonton, Red Deer, and Calgary, and funding the largest-ever expansion of continuing care.
β
Introducing patient-focused funding so hospital funding follows patients and the care they receive, helping increase access to surgeries and reduce wait times for procedures.
β
Enabling dual practice, allowing surgeons to provide both publicly insured and private services, increasing surgical capacity and helping more Albertans get treated sooner.
β
Expanding access to preventative testing, making it easier for Albertans to identify health concerns earlier, access timely answers, and take proactive steps to manage their health.
