Prescriptions of the past won’t fix modern health care

Canada has become sick with the disease of “magical thinking.” Most recently the TD Economics report, building on the premise that health care is unaffordable and unsustainable, directs our attention largely to old supply management priorities… The defective perception here is that what ails health care is fiscal; the “magical thinking” that the solution is to bring “efficiency” to the system. Today’s concepts of health care are little more than bigger, more expensive, “modern” versions of what we conceptualized at the end of World War II. Not true. Twice.
