Rhethoric

McGuinty's Government Improving Quality And Accountability In Health Care
Ontario is putting patients first by improving the quality and accountability of the province's health care system through new legislation.

If something wants to make me want to puke it is this type of rethoric
when the truth is health care has been dehumanized.
I call to sign in to get health care connect and an answering machine greats me and hangs up on me; without recourse to
another number to call , without anyone to speak with.
Improving quality ? I walk into the clinic and no one want to have anything to do with me , I am given a piece of paper and almost escorted out of the building. I cannot speak to any of the doctors and I have to go make a phone call to Service Ontario.
They advise me that when they notify me by mail that my enrollement to my present doctor has been canceled I will be
in a position to apply for a family doctor.
ACCOUNTABILITY ?
I get a letter ten days latter stating indeed that I am now
disconnected , so I go to the clinic and again I am almost escorted to the door.
" Sorry we cannot deal with you until you register with Health Care Connect "
...besides furthermore there is a waiting list...
You cannot chose a doctor , you will be asked questions and Health Care Connect will determine
when and whom and if ....
