The document discusses various ways to reform healthcare systems globally. It notes that healthcare spending is a large government expenditure and that there are issues with current delivery models. It provides examples of efficient healthcare countries and discusses opportunities to reduce waste and improve value through automation, supply chain reforms, preventative care, and increased use of analytics. Reforming healthcare will require changes to policies, costs, procurement processes, and placing more emphasis on outcomes.

• Canada needs to review its drug programs. Drug
Costs continues to rise - In 2018, $14.4 billion
(42.7%) of prescribed drug spending is expected to
be financed by the public sector, while the
remainder will be financed by private insurance and
individuals paying out of pocket. Drug spending is
just part of the expected $253.5 billion in total
health spending in Canada this year.
• Hospitals (28.3%), drugs (15.7%) and physician
services (15.1%) are expected to continue to
account for the largest shares of health dollars
(close to 60% of total health spending). The
remaining 41% will be spent on other health care
goods and services, including long-term care
facilities and allied health professionals.
• Fraud or about 12B per year

• Miss management and waste – Let’s say about 5% to
10% is waste (est.) then the value could be $11B to
25B per year. Could you imagine how dollars could
be stretched?
