Product Information

Things could certainly be better in the Canadian health care system. Dr. Terrence Montague's pivotal book traces how our health care system got to where it is today and provides a process for making it better. The prescription is simple: make patients the focus of the health care system. By making incremental improvements to close the gap between usual care and optimal care, large populations at risk will be better able to cope with the strain. Pateinst First reflects one physician's personal journey from the traditional and individual patient orientation of medicine to a broader vision of achieving the best health care for the most people at the best cost. Dr. Montague urges that our health care system adopt the principles of Patient Health Management, in particular community-based partnerships that aim at closing the care gap by putting patients first and measuring and dealing with the root causes, which are: less than optimal access; the diagnosis process; and prescription administration and compliance. Replete with case studies, populaiton-based evidence and first-person testimonials by practitioners, patients and policy makers, Patients First provides a compelling prescription for the future of Canada's health care system.
