The B.C. government is announcing it has reached an agreement with Doctors of BC and BC Family Doctors to update the pay model for family doctors in the province.
The new model will pay doctors taking into account several factors including the amount of time spent with a patient, the number of patients seen in a day, the number of patients supported through the office, the complexity of issues, and administrative costs. “Today is about commitment, action, and collaboration, and all they make possible in our health care system.”
