Dear colleagues and change makers:
I have just learned about a must see event at the Wosk Centre this Thursday September 27 with Globe and Mail columnist Jeffrey Simpson and four young Canadian healthcare leaders:
- PATRICK BOILY, Health Planning Agent, Reflet Salvéo
-
NADINE CARON, Academic Surgeon, Northern Medical Program, University of Northern British Columbia
- REBECCA COMLEY, Emergency Medicine Physician
- SAMIR SINHA, Director of Geriatrics, Mount Sinai and the University Health Network Hospitals
This event is called "Chronic Condition" based on Simpson's new book and will examine the ways Canada's healthcare system can be brought into the 21st Century -- particularly hospitals of the future, how physicians are paid and how Pharmcare is managed. Further information is below and in the attached flier.
Dialogue with journalist and author Jeffrey Simpson on provocative ideas from his newest book - Chronic Condition:
Why Canada's Health Care System Needs to be Dragged into the 21st Century
