Doctor sees limited changes in Alberta Third Way health plan

Taber physician Wes Steed says Alberta health care reform may not bring drastic shifts. Private payments for select insured services could exist while doctors work in public and for profit systems. Rural hospitals may become multidisciplinary centres, but services aim to stay timely and appropriate.

Health region backs reforms as partial positive move

Leaders in Alberta's health regions praise the Third Way reform concept while warning private work may draw doctors from the public system. They urge regional control over services and cite the Tabor Health Care Project and the Alberta Bone and Joint Institute as improvements to wait times and sustainability.

Nurse practitioners expand Taber clinic care goals

Wedel notes two nurse practitioners including Nicole Kinniburgh will help meet local CPCN goals. Since the asthma education program started at Taber Medical Centre, emergency room visits for uncontrolled asthma dropped by 61 percent. The project aims to identify family doctors, cut care costs by yearly physicals, reduce appointment delays, and keep patients from needing ER or walk-in visits. Taber reports fewer hospital admissions and less use of lab and X ray services.
