Thousands of surgeries may be cut in Metro Vancouver, leaked paper reveals:
"# Health authority to cut funds for mental health and addiction service providers to save $400,000
# Core patient services face deep cuts in Metro Vancouver, NDP says
# Massive cuts planned for Fraser Health region: NDP
# 2,500 elective surgeries delayed for 2010 Games
# Health jobs cut, your fees and wait times will increase
# Elective surgeries to be cut by 35 per cent during Olympics"
I'll say it again. Despite all of President Obama's protestations, no nationalized health care system has demonstrated any propensity to slow or control the growth of health care spending, except thru draconian service rationing. Hat tip to Pragertopia.
