Let Regionalization Continue to Evolve

Jack Davis

Abstract

This commentary provides a practical perspective on the benefits of regionalization within the context of the lead paper by Lewis and Kouri. Discussion of the best structure of health systems needs to take into account the reality that constitutional and funding responsibility - and therefore accountability - for our healthcare system lies with provincial governments. Accountability at the provincial government level is simply a part of regionalization and should be expected by health system managers.
