As with ALL government run systems.....they quickly refrain from being responsible to the ones they serve/pay their wages and we can do nothing to fire them or hold them able to supplying the taxpayers with anything in the private system as they get paid for whatever sh!t treatments they shove down our throats for the cheapest costs (and 40 year old technology) that they can get away with. On the other hand, thousands of smoking 400 pounders wandering into their 100% free(??) medical clinics weekly with a litany of maladies and overloading the system with their 'needs' when the diagnoses is walk a mile a day and pull the fork out of your face is the real diagnosis.!!!
The provincial election about 6 years ago with complaints of the medical system in BC had a local group of reporters go to Norway, Sweden, UK, GmbH and France to evaluate their systems.....and they were scored on 3 indices; patient wait times, technology and patient satisfaction. Guess who won? FRANCE!!!!! I know, they complain about EVERYTHING there in that socialist country. Here's the kicker, they are about 49.2% private and 50.8% public and their contracts/work/patients/money is awarded on them being the 'best quality care' to the patients based on those 3 indices. What a concept.....competition and the gov't staying in the background ONLY as an arm's length third party governmental body ensuring the taxpayers are looked after and getting the best bang for their money.!!!

What a concept.!!
