Support for billing ban
At Queen's Park last week, more
than 40 independent organizations
representing labour, wonien, seniors,
disabled, consumers and others
united` in support of the Liberal
Government's action to ban extra -
billing in Ontario. At anews con-
ference sponsored by the National Ac-
tion Committee on the Status of
Women, these groups stated they felt
is was necessary to forcefully show
that the majority of people in Ontario
strongly support our health care
system and do not wish to see it
eroded.
At the opening of hearings into the
issue of extra -billing last week,
Health Minister Murray Elston spoke
to the Social Development Committee
at Queen's Park. In his remarks, Mr.
Elston provided a brief insight into
our healthcare system in Ontario and
in Canada. •
The Liberal Government at
Queen's Park is committed to ending
extra -billing. At the same time, both
the Health Minister and the Govern-
ment as a whole are open and flexi-
ble on ways of implementing the bill.
As Mr. Elston stated," Everything is
on the bargaining table but the prin-
ciple itself."
Extra -billing represents a double
jeopardy for our province. Federal
funds withheld from Ontario amount
to $53 million a year, while an addi-
tional $53 million is taken out of pa-
tients' pockets for medical care that
is supposed to be publicly insured in
the first place.
In Canada, we have rejected the no-
tion that medicine is a business like
any other. We have rejected tollgate
health care. When we compare the
Ontario health care system with the
one south of the border, some startl-
ing contrasts leap out at us. Today, 25
million Canadians enjoy the benefit of
hospital and health care insurance,
while 35 million Americans are
without any health insurance at all.
Even today, in the United States, the
cdfit of hospital and medical bills con-
tinues to be the single biggest cause
of Rersonal bankruptcy.
Our way-- the Canadian way-- is to
have a health care system with all
needed services available to
everyone. "We don't want a system
where the quality of care is directly
related to a patient's bank balance or
credit rating," Mr. Elston told the
committee. "The people of Ontario
value our health care system.
"They have trust in it, they have
confidence in it and they have high ex-
pectations about its ability to adapt to
meet our changing needs. The Liberal
Government in Ontario is determin-
ed to preserve and protect this health
care system for the benefit of all the
people in this province. We have
made that commitment, and we in-
tend to keep it."
This week a group of seniors have
added their voice to those supporting
the government's ban on extra-
billirig.
The OMA have re -opened negotia-
tions with Premier Peterson and the
Minister of Health, and it is an-
ticipated agreements can be reached
