Should physicians be allowed to practice in both public and private healthcare systems?
Alberta is moving toward a dual-practice healthcare model that would allow physicians to work in the public system while also offering private-pay care under a regulated framework. Other provinces are watching closely, and the debate is national. Supporters argue dual practice expands capacity, retains doctors, and reduces wait times without removing anyone's public coverage. Opponents argue it draws physicians away from the public system and creates two-tier access to care. Should provinces allow physicians to practice in both public and private systems?
