Andrew Longhurst
Andrew Longhurst is a health policy researcher known for his critical analysis of Alberta's health care system. He authored a recent report highlighting the impact of increased funding for private surgical facilities on the public health system, revealing that the province's spending on these facilities has tripled while wait times for critical procedures, such as cancer surgeries, have increased. Longhurst argues that the shift towards private care is diverting essential resources away from public hospitals, exacerbating the challenges faced by the public health system.
