Why it is so hard to reform health-care policy in Canada:
Lessons from a Cross-Provincial Comparison of Health- Care Policy Reform in Canada
Latest update: January 23, 2014
This research project was launched in the early 2000s. It is based on the findings from 30 case studies that were selected as representative of health-care policy writ-large. A common methodology was used in assessing the 30 cases.
The cases describe and assess the nature and extent of health-care policy reform in Canada between 1990 and 2003 and set out the factors that account for the limited reform. The findings are updated to cover the 2004-2011 period.
