I think it would be a good idea to compare quality of life in a different group of patients with the same disease in different provinces, where access to care is different, but those kinds of studies haven't been done. If CIHR wants to fund those, I'd be happy to put in an application for money, but nobody has looked at that. It's a valid point, and something worth pursuing.
