This is a series of figures from various budgets where specific spending targets were identified in the area of health careānot all provinces identified a specific target.
Prince Edward Island, in the 2012-13 budget, indicated that they'll cap health care spending at 3.5% in subsequent years. Nova Scotia, though it didn't provide a specific restraint target, did indicate that it has reduced health care administration costs to below the national average and has cut the rate of growth of health spending. New Brunswick said in their 2012-13 budget that health spending is projected to grow by just 3%, and can be managed to further reduce growth while focusing on priority improvements financed within the current system. Quebec, in budget 2010-11, shows a heath care funding growth target of no more than 5% annually, and this was reiterated in budget 2012-13. Ontario targets reduced health spending growth of 2.1% annually over the next three years. Manitoba indicated, although no specific target was identified, that they would manage spending in the health care system by increasing efficiencies and legislating a cap on administrative costs for regional health authorities. Saskatchewan targets a health care budget increase that is less than the increase in provincial revenue growth by March 31, 2017, based on a rolling five-year average. British Columbia provided no specific restraint target, but mentioned a 3% average annual growth in health care spending.
That would be the sum of it.
