註釋
Wait times for health care in Canada have lengthened considerably over the past two decades. The unanswered question in the discussion so far has been how many died due to delays in receiving timely care? It is the answer to this question-the relationship between delayed access to medical services and mortality rates at the population level-that is the focus of our study. Understanding the association between wait times for medical care and death at the population level is critical if we are to more fully understand the consequences of the lengthy delays Canadians endure when accessing medically necessary care.
