HLST 2020 Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Supreme Court Of Canada
Document Summary
The material discusses the impact of a canadian supreme court ruling that ruled that quebec paients should have the right to purchase private health insurance. Quebec and involved a quebec paient and his doctor who challenged the quebec law that prevented. The paper provides the view that the case was iniially thought of as limited to quebec but has recently created implicaions for the future of public healthcare across canada. My reacion to this paper is that the court should have been more knowledgeable about canada"s healthcare system in comparison to those around the world. Further knowledge in this regard would have helped to make a beter informed decision. This aricle discusses health care reforms in canada. The two main areas of focus have been improving the quality of paient experience and the reorganizaion of regional health systems. Canada is largely inluenced by the united states and the united kingdom when it comes to quality of paient care.
