Mr. Chairman, I was interested in the hon. member's presentation. There are a couple of words that the hon. member used. Value as defined by Mr. Romanow had to do with how we felt about the principles of medicare, et cetera.
On quality care, how does the member propose that we define quality care? For me, and from the Canadian Medical Association document which the hon. member referred to, quality care will obviously be defined by evidence based analysis, by looking at outcomes. When defining how a person is getting their health care, value is not necessarily a word in that case. It would be how we define quality accessible care.
I would be interested in knowing how the member would define quality care. Does he believe it is important to have evidence based outcome analysis? Does he believe it should be done by a third party as suggested by the Canadian Medical Association and the Canadian commission on health?
