Alberta health minister says fundamental change needed as system is ‘not working’
CALGARY, AB – Health Minister Adriana LaGrange says the Alberta government is fundamentally restructuring health care because the system “is not working.”
“Any Albertan who has gone to a hospital or to a clinic and had to endure the long wait times and not had access and not have quality care knows that we need to do something differently,” LaGrange told the house during question period Monday.
“The average Albertan cannot get in to see a family physician when they need to.
“What’s happening right now is not working, so we are committed to improving the system.”
