Description

In December 1998, Premier Ralph Klein announced Health Summit '99 and launched a process for seeking input on the health care system in Alberta and the responsibility and role of individuals in managing their own health. The summit was held in February 1999 and was preceded by a wider public consultation to inform the summit. A final report was prepared following the summit and identified common themes that emerged from the discussions. This response document addresses those common themes. The Government of Alberta accepts in principle and is committed to following up on all of the recommendations received through Health Summit '99, and the report highlights many of the initiatives already underway or planned, which respond to the Summit recommendations.
