Canadian health care system is gulping down the huge funds from the Government smoothly. The B. C. Government has decided to make amendments in the way the funds are given to the hospitals.

In order to make the environment competitive, lump funding will be withdrawn and now onwards the hospitals will be provided with incentives for providing acute-care services.

It is for the first time that this system is being launched in Canada, though it is practiced in other countries. It was introduced by the Senate committee's report on health care in 2006, for a better control on costs and for improvement in the hospital services.

The new change has led to the development of BC Health Services Purchasing Organization and it will collect an amount of $250 million which can be spent on health reforms.

Brian Day, The Former Canadian Medical Association President, private surgical clinic owner calls it a, "patient-focused funding".

B. C. government has been very successful in reducing the waiting times for the knee and hip replacement operations and spinal surgeries.

The concentration of the new plan will be to decrease the waiting times in the hospitals which will be covering approximately 23 large medical service providers.
