Have government funding for important things, life saving surgery's, births, children's healthcare, things like that, but otherwise I think that if you are willing to pay for certain things right away you should be given the chance to do that so you can fix a problem of yours faster. I don't believe that privatized healthcare is a terrible idea, but I do believe it needs to be balanced with some public support.

More but have privatization healthcare as an alternative option for individuals who would prefer that kind of healthcare.

There should be a two tier system, this would allow those who wish to pay more the opportunity for private treatment while maintaining public health for those who can't afford private. This would also significantly reduce the wait times in hospitals across the country.

If the purpose of privatized hospitals are to make the medical attention then there should be more of them but at the same time, there should still be public hospitals to keep medical attention available for everyone but with the cost of time instead of money.

There should be the choice to choose which you want but there should only a certain amount of places open and workers aloud to work there to protect hospitals and emergency rooms

 @B37ZK3Kfrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

There should be a basic government healthcare you can opt into as well as the private option for more expensive niche surgery’s/treatments

 @8VTHH7MNew Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Have a mix of both, privatized will also take help loads off waiting rooms and public hospitals

 @8VJBD29Libertarianfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Things like diagnostic imaging review should be privatized more. Comical visits and essential life saving services should always be public

 @8VDDKHDNew Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

The current level of privatisation is fine but we need more for public health care

 @8SM73DLfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Mixed, but the privatized must work in normal health care as well. Basically the privatization helping pay for overall health care - not profit.

 @8RWGWD6from Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Switch to a two tier system, this will free up space in public hospitals and ensure quicker wait times for urgent care patients.

 @9BD6B4Vfrom Alberta  answered…2yrs2Y

Remove privatization altogether, and increase spending on healthcare so that we can build more facilities in areas that don't have enough, upgrade existing facilities, and hire more doctors and nurses.

 @99743DNfrom Alberta  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes to privatization but with caveats that only a percentage of medical professionals can work in them and only after a set tenure in public service.
