Former transportation minister Rajan Sawhney considered moving back to regional boards during the first leadership debate.Former children’s services minister Rebecca Schulz has promised to simplify AHS’ structure, reducing middle management.
Steven Lewis, a health-care consultant and adjunct professor of health policy at Simon Fraser University, said some of the frontrunners are making ideological statements that appeal to those voting in the leadership race rather than presenting serious health-care platforms.Article content “If you don’t signal your intentions to really focus on primary care, history has shown that you can talk about structure all you want and you can demonize the leadership or the board of AHS, it’s not going to solve your problems — all it’s going to do is create more disruption,” he said, adding that restructuring will take several years to fully implement, and won’t address the root of the problems.Both Sawhney and Schulz have promised to invest in and bolster primary care networks.
