Canadians seek treatment abroad
The Fraser Institute, a Canadian public policy think tank, estimates that 52,513 Canadians received non-emergency medical treatment in the U.S. and other countries, a 25 percent jump from the roughly 41,838 who sought medical care abroad the previous year.
In citing those numbers, "Leaving Canada for Medical Care," the organization said difficulties in obtaining timely medical care at home is, increasingly, leading Canadians to seek it abroad. "It is possible [they] may have left the country to avoid some of the adverse medical consequences of waiting for care, such as worsening of their condition, poorer outcomes following treatment, disability, or death," the report says. "Some may leave simply to avoid delay and to make a quicker return to normal life."
Canadians could expect to wait 9.8 weeks for medically necessary treatment after seeing a specialist, the researchers found, three weeks more than the time physicians considered to be clinically "reasonable."
