Privatization is the process of transferring governmental control and ownership of a service or industry to a privately owned business.
@4Y8XQ853yrs3Y
Should be a 10 dollar flat fee for all hospital visits
@3QWVVTB3yrs3Y
More, and doctors should not be penalized or stripped of their licences for looking at alternative therapies for patients
@8CR5JVD4yrs4Y
I need to educate myself before forming an opinion
@4LYKNWX3yrs3Y
If there is privatization on healthcare services. The expenses should be a 100% tax write off.
@9HXZTXM3mos3MO
There can be both private and public however the public healthcare system needs to change therefore need for more funding
There should be an option for private healthcare but keep free healthcare
@8GN4VMF4yrs4Y
yes i like how it is but if someone really needs something they should try and make a way for them to getting it
@9CBTBW311mos11MO
The choice should exist to either accept wait times in the current system or pay more for expedited services.
@luca.a21 1wk1W
There should be a balance between the two, allowing people who can afford private healthcare the option. Pay should fluctuate so doctors do not flood to private healthcare
@9LCFWGTNew Democratic2wks2W
If one can afford to pay for Healthcare issues they be able to... this would decrease the current burden in emergency rooms
@9L8R7943wks3W
More, and if the public health care system doesn’t help in time they are defaulted to the private system at the governments expense.
@9L7YFLM3wks3W
Federate healthcare into regional budget- allow for regions to explore expanding private clinics at their own pace.
@9L6B6WF3wks3W
Less just break up patents allow for open all drugs to be open patents and provide free information on legal natural alternatives, and crowd funded 3d printed drugs
@9HHC8RDConservative4mos4MO
If we lowered taxes by 50% and people got to keep their money, I would say privatize it. But if the government is going to continue to keep the high tax rates AND make us pay for healthcare out of pocket, then no.
@9HCSTN25mos5MO
Less, and introduce capitation fees as well as transparency of pricing for perscription and hospital bills.
@9GZYG4J5mos5MO
More, and provide healthcare vouchers and healthcare tax credits for low income individual/families.
@9GVZYQM5mos5MO
More, only if the free public services remain equally available. You should be able to pay for a privatized one to get quicker service. Or just go to the free public one and wait it out.
@9GPXW9V6mos6MO
I am in favor of a two party health care system. I believe those wishing access to public healthcare should be able to receive it, and the same for those looking for privatized healthcare.
@9GPVK6G6mos6MO
More privatization but ensure it is standardized that way those who can pay can get off wait lists to serve those who can't pay quicker
@9GMSV2F6mos6MO
I support a mix of both public and private healthcare services. However we need the healthcare services to cover not just physical, but also mental, dental, eye care etc
@9GL3GM86mos6MO
Government should have strong health care for all but if you want to seek a different doctor go for it
@9GGS5K56mos6MO
depends on if they are a close family member, and the patient should be asked who they don't want knowing about them.
@9GF7LP26mos6MO
I like what they are doing right now but I do think they should take patients more seriously and get them they help they think they need.
@9GCVSH56mos6MO
Everyone should have free healthcare and have the option to pay for privatized healthcare services to get faster treatment.
@9G8ZNRK6mos6MO
for me it's an intermediate posture for example it's important to have privatization so the people who have success can go and check their self with a private doctor but then if it gets more and more the majority of doctors are going to choose to work at private and that would be a huge problem in the public services and not all the people can allow to a private doctor.
@9FXFB4W7mos7MO
More, Healthcare should be controlled by the people working in healthcare but still be able to get the funding they need from the government. (financial support)
@9FDGX7J7mos7MO
Non emergency patients should not be going to the ER
@9FC8PV57mos7MO
more, as this helps others that needs immediate medical attention and makes it easier to access by paying.
@9FB68RG7mos7MO
More, a two-tiered system would benefit everyone.
@9F9THK37mos7MO
I think they should also implement a non-government funded hospital for easier access as our free healthcare can take some time, I think that this can help a lot of people who need immediate attention without having to wait. But, also keep our free healthcare.
@9F9RHJW7mos7MO
Create a good balence between privatized and public health care to reduce load on public health care.
@9F992B4Libertarian7mos7MO
Mix between both. Private health care for those who can afford to take strain off socialized health care
@9F8XK9X7mos7MO
More privatization of specialized services, and less privatization of general healthcare, but also more government-funded programs provided to help those who require more specialized healthcare services, and more government funding provided to Generalized healthcare.
@9F8VWNDConservative7mos7MO
Only some for rich people who can afford it
More privatization for those willing to indulge, while still maintaining and supporting the public system
@9F8CVCN7mos7MO
Less privatization, recognizing there is a place for private sector in the health system (but they should always bill the province and never the patient).
@92WM9XQ2yrs2Y
I am in the middle on this topic.
Privatization can equal specialization and more opportunities for providers and patients but I think service fees should be capped and paid for from health care transfers.
@92SBLVXConservative2yrs2Y
People should be able to spend their own money on health services if they choose, they can do the same with almost anything else.
@92R3TFG2yrs2Y
entirely privatized like america doesn't
@92QXYZV2yrs2Y
This is not a yes or no question
@92QD3FJ2yrs2Y
more privatization but not at the expense of public health.
Less and provide two or more times of government funding
@92L9QF72yrs2Y
More, but subsidized by the government so healthcare is free for citizens
@92FTNBQ2yrs2Y
Just make it easier to access if you add more because not everyone can afford it
@92FP4P62yrs2Y
We should make a hybridized system in order to make costs go down while making wait times lowered.
@92DS66S2yrs2Y
Prevention should be prioritized so that privatization isn't a discussion.
@92BV8FL2yrs2Y
More, but only if there are separate and equal resources for public and private such that the wait times decrease for both and quality of care is the same.
