Change and Continuity in Canada's Health Care System
By Aleck Ostry
CHA Press, Ottawa, ON
Canada’s health care system has seen considerable change over the past century. Yet it has also maintained much continuity in its organizational framework, policy focus and professional development and regulation. These two themes—change and continuity— provide the context for the author’s historical discussion of the funding, delivery and evolution of the system from the late 19th to the early 21st century. The first five chapters 2 describe how financing of the system has evolved, while other chapters look at the growth of the various health professions and the institutional development of health delivery. The author supports his themes with extensive and up-to-date tables and figures based on the latest available statistics.
