Back to EpisodesQuebec Doctors Paid to Skip Group Patients
Description
Quebecs family doctors are racing to register five hundred thousand patients without a doctor by July first, prioritizing pure orphans over group patients linked to family medicine groups. This push is driven by a deal between the Federation of Quebec Family Physicians and the Legault government, tying a two point five percent bonus on doctors pay to hitting the target. However, this setup disadvantages vulnerable patients in groups, shoving them down the waiting list even if they need care most. The College of Physicians of Quebec is sounding the alarm, urging a fix to ensure no ones left behind for the sake of stats or bonuses.
