Journal Article
Ten health stories that mattered this week: Feb. 9–13
2015
Overview
* British Columbia has Canada's healthiest population and, along with Ontario, ranks higher than most advanced countries in the Conference Board of Canada's first health report card that compares Canada and 15 peer countries. BC ranked third overall, after Switzerland and Sweden, across a variety of health indicators. Newfoundland and Labrador and Canada's three territories received the worst grades. * Nova Scotia patient advocates called for an end to ambulance fees. The province billed patients some $12.2 million for ambulance service in 2013/14. According to the Nova Scotia Citizens' Health Care Network, those fees deter people from calling an ambulance in emergencies, \"adding costs to the health system due to increased complications.\" - Lauren Vogel, CMAJ
