Cost Effectiveness & Drug Pricing In Canada

Abstract: 4 pages in length. Canada's National Health System is often touted as one of the major advantages in being a Canadian citizen. The system is currently experiencing stress, however, as a result of the very medical advances which are perceived by the world as being instrumental in saving lives and making life more pleasant and bearable for many more. Much of the cost of rising health care is attributed to newly discovered and costly drugs and high-tech procedures, many of which are specialized laboratory procedures developed only in the past few years, but much of the cost is a simple reflection of the fact that medical science is keeping people alive longer than it has in previous decades. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
