Thank you, Madam Chair, and my thanks to the witnesses for being here today. I found your presentations excellent and really forward-looking.
Before I got into this business, I was a chiropractor and I ran wellness clinics. It was trying to put together something like you were talking about, a multidisciplinary team. We have an acute care health system and everybody is in silos in this country. But the model doesn't quite fit with the management of chronic conditions. We should be looking at cost savings, outcomes, patient satisfaction, and having a system that's more patient-oriented and flexible.
It's something that is coming together, thanks to the testimony we're getting at this committee. You mentioned a study the Mowat Centre did. We've been told that a different model would over time save a lot of money for governments. I was wondering whether you were aware of research that supports or refutes this claim. Are there other models around the world that are starting to do this?
