The way physicians’ services are remunerated is inherently inflationary, for example, and does little to encourage appropriate emphasis on preventive health care. doctor, Sept. 6Geordon Omand’s article concerning the move to increase types of procedures allowed by privatized health insurance simply describes another grab at two-tiered health care. Canada should apply the same reasoning to its public health care system.

Private health care is intended for the monied not the masses, and should have no place in Canada.
