Opinion: Alberta Health takes wrong turn on waiting list deaths

Summary

Nutrition label

57% Informative

Colin Craig : Alberta Health stopped collecting data on patients dying while waiting for surgery and diagnostic scans.

He says it's an important issue to research for many reasons, not the least of which is that a patient dying because the government took too long to provide treatment is the ultimate failure of a health-care system.

Instead of improving the situation, the problem has gotten worse, he says.

Craig : If governments want to set the bar high for others, then they should meet it too.
