Government of Alberta announces healthcare reforms
LETHBRIDGE, AB – Alberta’s healthcare system is set to undergo some changes.
Premier Danielle Smith and Health Minister Jason Copping announced a series of reforms on Thursday, November 17, 2022.
Smith says the reforms are greatly needed as the provincial health system has been struggling for a long time.
“Patients are waiting too long across our health system, despite the excellent work of doctors, nurses, paramedics and other front-line staff. We need more urgent action to improve access. Albertans want accountability within AHS and they want to know that a world-class health system and level of care is available when they need it,” says Smith.
