Selene Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Hmm, seems like this is exactly what we predicted happens with socialized medicine...A new study on Canadian healthcare has been released. In it, the authors examine the deleterious effects of socialized medicine on patient wait times and the delivery of care.

Released by the Fraser Institute, the December 2012 survey of specialists reveals that Canadians are now waiting 17.7 weeks between the referral to a specialist and the delivery of treatment. This is 91 percent longer than in 1993, when the institute began studying wait times. In essence, wait times in Canada have doubled in the past 20 years. Sadly, the rationing of care that results in lengthy wait times for patients is a predictable consequence of government interference in the medical system.Read more: http://www.fee.org/the_freeman/detail/a-cure-for-obamacare-from-canada-with-love#ixzz2mcRq8AYV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
