The Canada Health Act for the Twenty-First Century?

Health Law in Canada 2017 Februrary
As the participants in the Canada Health Act, Version 2.0 conference made clear, there is a strong case to be made that this key piece of legislation no longer captures some key challenges to managing health care in Canada. Particular issues include 'portability' across provincial/territorial boundaries, and the definition of insured services. However, the CHA is not a barrier to reform; it acts as a floor, rather than a ceiling. Health reform may thus require a combination of new legislation to set conditions for which new services should be insured, and developing mechanisms to identify priorities, ensure appropriateness, and improve efficiency, which are unlikely to be addressed through overarching legislation. The CHA should thus be maintained, recognizing that it is necessary, but not sufficient.
