Résumé :
- Chapter 1 - Sustaining Medicare :
Chapter 1 argues that Canada's health care system has served Canadians well and is as sustainable as Canadians want it to be. In addition to the imperative for social consensus for a public health system, the issue of sustainability needs to be assessed from three dimensions : services, needs and resources. Effective governance is needed to bring equilibrium between these dimensions.
- Chapter 2 - Health Care, Citizenship and Federalism :
Chapter 2 lays the foundation for all other aspects of the report and recommends a renewed commitment to medicare, new governance approaches, stable and predictable long-term funding, and targeted funding to facilitate change in critical areas.
- Chapter 3 - Information, Evidence and Ideas :
Chapter 3 sets the stage for electronic health records, a more comprehensive use of information management and technology, including health technology assessment, to provide essential information throughout the health care system, and a targeted focus on applied research.
- Chapter 4 - Investing in Health Care Providers :
Chapter 4 addresses the future for Canada's health workforce, tackling immediate issues of supply and distribution but also larger issues relating to their changing roles and responsibilities, and the need for comprehensive, long-term national strategies.
- Chapter 5 - Primary Health Care and Prevention :
Chapter 5 outlines the need to accelerate ongoing efforts to reform how primary care services are delivered in Canada and to improve their focus on wellness. It also identifies ways to remove traditional obstacles to these reforms.
- Chapter 6 - Improving Access, Ensuring Quality :
Chapter 6 directly tackles Canadians' concerns about waiting times, access and quality in our health care system.
- Chapter 7 - Rural and Remote Communities :
Chapter 7 establishes a new Rural and Remote Access Fund to improve access to quality health care and services in smaller communities across the country.
- Chapter 8 - Home Care : The Next Essential Service :
Chapter 8 outlines three critical areas where home care must become an essential service under the "Canada Health Act" umbrella.
- Chapter 9 - Prescription Drugs :
Chapter 9 addresses the difficult issue of prescription drugs, takes the important first step to integrate prescription drugs into Canada's health care system, and proposes a new National Drug Agency.
- Chapter 10 - A New Approach to Aboriginal Health :
In Chapter 10, we address the serious disparities in health for Canada's Aboriginal peoples and propose a new approach that cuts across traditional boundaries and focuses squarely on improving their health.
- Chapter 11 - Health Care and Globalization :
Chapter 11 moves beyond Canada's boundaries to examine Canada's role in the global context.
