Sask. Party’s health plan includes private CT scans, savings of $7.5 M
The Saskatchewan Party announced a number of new initiatives for health care.
If re-elected it is promising to provide patients more choice. Much like MRIs, you will be able to pay for a CT scan privately, and under the “two-for-one” deal, the clinic must provide a scan for someone at the top of the public wait list.
“I think people have moved past ideology,” Brad Wall told reporters at an event in southeast Regina. “The majority of people want more timely care.”
Another initiative is to reduce administration positions and cost in the health regions and redirect the savings to front line workers.
