Could I just add, just so you know, in 2013 the British Columbia Pharmacy Association reviewed literature on the financial impact of access barriers because of cost in the Canadian health care system, and as Marc-André suggested, there's not a great deal of literature, but they found estimates that range between $1 billion per year and $9 billion per year. Even if you just take the low end, that's a significant burden on our health care system. At the high end, it may still be realistic, given the numbers of diabetic deaths that the Ontario research study suggests have happened as a function of access barriers. It could really be as much as $9 billion a year.
