No. I think the public sector has the capacity to continue providing care, but outside the hospital setting. Those services could be publicly funded. As far as I'm concerned, patients should not have to pay out of pocket. I don't believe in that. I think the system is very fair and ensures universal access.
Earlier, my colleagues in occupational therapy highlighted the undeniable need for better access in some sectors. I have no doubt that's true, but I don't think we need to look to the private sector to deliver that care. Whether the private sector should handle the administration side of things is another discussion, but people should not have to pay out of pocket. That would not make care more accessible.
