Our healthcare system is facing a critical moment as we rebuild from the pandemic. What have we learned about our healthcare system in response to the stress it faced? How should we approach building a better healthcare system that is both resilient to future crises and sustainable in the face of long-term stresses? The Partnership for Health Sustainability and Resilience, founded by AstraZeneca, the World Economic Forum and the London School of Economics is launching a Canadian report in partnership with Sara Allin, Associate Professor at the Institute of Health Policy, Management and Evaluation (IHPME) at the University of Toronto. The report will assess Canada’s health systems across seven key domains: financing; governance; workforce; medicines and technology; service delivery; population health; and environmental sustainability, in order to identify strengths, potential weaknesses, opportunities and risks. We look forward to seeing the results of the report and discussing the key takeaways for Canada’s healthcare systems.
