I've lived with a 2-tier healthcare system in the UK

The private system steals doctors from the public system causing wait times to get longer

Alberta already has a doctor shortage, imagine how bad it would be if a significant portion of them left to work privately

1/2
The UCP’s plan to tackle wait times by introducing private pay in our health-care system is a step backward.
✅ It worsens access
✅ It widens inequity
✅ It jeopardizes quality & health outcomes

This has been tried before, & makes wait-times worse.
Opinion: Private-pay medical testing is no solution to wait times
We urge Alberta’s policymakers to resist the false temptation of paying for private access as a “solution” to wait lists.
