Primary care reform: is it time for population-based funding?

چکیده

LA RÉFORME DES SOINS MÉDICAUX PRIMAIRES AU CANADA attire de plus en plus d’attention, surtout de la part des gouvernements préoccupés par les coûts imprévisibles et la mauvaise répartition des médecins. La mise en oeuvre d’un mode de financement fondé sur la population suscite beaucoup d’intérêt. La capitation et l’inscription sont répandues dans certains pays d’Europe, mais les données probantes relatives à leur efficacité sont difficiles à interpréter à cause des différences entre les systèmes de soins de santé. Même si les résultats signalés par les Drs Truls Østbye et Steinar Hunskaar dans ce numéro (page 45) indiquent que la capitation et l’inscription peuvent être efficaces et acceptables dans certains pays, elles ne sont pas nécessairement applicables au contexte canadien. Il est néanmoins probable que l’on implantera bientôt au Canada un mode de financement fondé sur la population, ce qui permettra de mieux évaluer les systèmes de paiement.
