You're absolutely correct.
We've actually had some great success in recruiting physicians into our model of care. I think one of the great attractions is the opportunity to work in a team environment. It's the opportunity to work with a number of other professionals of similar and different disciplines to address the whole person. It's not being driven by the number of patients you're seeing in a given hour to make sure you can bill what you need to pay your bills. They can spend more time with patients to address the chronic disease issues, which are becoming paramount in our country, and make referrals appropriately, without feeling that they're losing revenue.
We don't solicit a cooperative way of doing that as the only way. There are certainly other models. There are many community health centres in Ontario, and Alberta as well, that provide an excellent model of care, with salaried physicians who provide comprehensive care in multi-disciplinary teams.
We're not saying that we're the only way to provide that care. We're saying it is an effective and efficient way. It engages members, is very client-centred, and it works, so it should be supported.
