Calling Chard: asparagus and leek risotto with chicken | SaltWireCHARLOTTETOWN, P.E.I. — Concerns about the province’s public health-care system moving towards the private sector have members of the P.E.I. Health Coalition worried.
While addressing the crowd of more than 50 people, she highlighted issues with for-profit care services. She said it pulls from the same pool of staff as the public sector, which makes it harder for the public sector to provide care. This then contributes to the labour force crisis. “It's harder to get accountability for our money as more and more private equity is more and more involved, making following the money and finding out who to hold responsible even more difficult.”
“Our health care systems become invisible. And we need to make those good parts really visible. It's not perfect, and it's not perfectly equitable, and it is being undermined, in part by the bad stories that are told all the time, rather than the good stories,” she said. She told SaltWire in an interview that a shift towards private health care means patients being billed through their credit cards rather than showing their health cards.
