AB govt is determined to privatize public health care. An RFP just closed for a "Health Contracting Secretariat" that will use public $ to help attract corporations/reduce barriers to market entry. Part of the assault on public delivery & the non-partisan public service. #abpoli

@Lorian_H @FriendsMedicare @sandraiaz @PoliScIrish @ParklandInst @UbakaOgbogu @PIAlberta Here is the RFP overview for the "Health Contracting Secretariat". This is clearly about creating the conditions for corporations to deliver public health care, and undermining the ability of the non-partisan @AHS_media and Alberta Health to make its own decisions. #abpoli
@Lorian_H @FriendsMedicare @sandraiaz @PoliScIrish @ParklandInst @UbakaOgbogu @PIAlberta @AHS_media Note that the vision is for corporations to deliver publicly funded services in chartered surgical facilities, primary care, continuing care, diagnostics, and virtual care.
The intent is to hollow out @AHS_media and turn public health care into a source of profit-making. #abpoli
