Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Non-Covid Healthcare Disruption: Waiting Lists and Screening

Dr. Denis McCauley:

That is beyond my pay grade. If it is fast-tracked, that would be a positive development but I would have no influence in that. I would only encourage that it is fast-tracked. It is like all systems in that it is in the community and it would be cost-effective management. Therefore, it would ultimately save money and lives, which is what we all want. We primarily want to save lives but if it saves money as a secondary feature, that is excellent.
