TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwire – Aug. 24, 2010) – Proponents of for-profit private health care claim our public health care system is “unsustainable,” but the facts show that these claims are driven far more by ideology than real data. Canadian Doctors for Medicare’s briefing note, Health Care Sustainability, explains the issues underlying the debate about health care sustainability, and how physicians in Canada can work together to control health care costs and to improve our health care system for the benefit of all Canadians.
Canadian Doctors for Medicare (CDM) is a national, membership-based organization that believes in Canada’s publicly-funded health care system. The organization’s mission is to provide a voice for Canadian doctors who want to strengthen and improve Canada’s universal publicly-funded health care system in a way that benefits all Canadians.
