Socialized Medicine – Tales of the Que
An example of why some seek medical tourism or “medtravel” Tales from the “Que”.
Recently a grassroots organization in Canada organized a public meeting. The group noted ” We need accountability in healthcare”.
”The Winnipeg Regional Health Authority” needs to be held accountable for its actions. Remember the “Brian Sinclair” incident. For over 34 hours Mr. Sinclair sat in the Health Sciences Center emergency ward ; he died a few hours before he was found that he needed help. It became clear that he did not need to die. Instead of being transparent with the public as to what took place, Winnipeg Regional Health Care authority appeared to mislead the public.”
Over the last few of months we foundthta WHRA was receiving “brown envelopes’ in return for contracts. Now , I understand the provincial auditor is investigating the issue. Then there is that stupid decision to cut back on emergency EMO services at Seven Oaks Hospital. Cutting back these emergency services ultimately goes against the concept of community based hospitals , which by the way , if managed properly , are more cost effiecient and provide the same quality of care as the Health Sciences Center.
