Drug costs Dental Care Hospital and medical services Vision care Out-of-country medical coverage Short- and long-term disability claims Paramedical coverage (massage, chiropractic, etc.) Increased utilization Source: Unpublished data from The Conference Board of Canada’s 2003 compensation planning survey. www.conferenceboard.ca Drivers of Rising Health Benefits Costs(in descending order of impact)

  27. www.conferenceboard.ca Health Expenditure Growth Rate Average Source: OECD.

  28. Money alone is not the answer. Canada must do more to control escalating pharmaceutical costs. Creating and maintaining a satisfied workforce is vital for a high-performing health care system . Canada needs to focus more on health promotion, prevention and appropriate investments in the broad determinants of health as strategies to control health costs over the long term. www.conferenceboard.ca Key Findings for Canada

  29. The “greying” of Canada’s population does not have to result in a more expensive health care system. Countries that have invested strategically in health related information and communications technologies (ICT) and provided training and skills development are better integrated and have a more productive workforce. User fees/cost-sharing methods work well to control costs under certain circumstances, but may have consequences. A publicly funded health care system with zero or low user fees needs to ensure that it has adequate surgical capacity if it wants to avoid long wait times. www.conferenceboard.ca Key Findings for Canada

  30. Assuming that re-defining the Medicare basket is worth the trouble….. Get it right the first time. Recognize current health care utilization patterns and plan based on the future needs of Canadians. Align services with patient/client expectations. Process used must be transparent. Services must be necessary, effective and cost-effective. Provide equitable funding and access. Use International experience with technology assessment. Canada needs a NICE. www.conferenceboard.ca 7 Key Policy Principles for Defining the Medicare Basket:
