Description:

Patients First: Closing the Health Care Gap in Canada is distilled from one physician’s 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.

At the centre of Dr. Terrance Montague’s vision is the patient, and he provides a blueprint that will deliver optimal health care results without placing an even greater burden on available resources.

The author urges that our health care system adopt the principles of Patient Health Management, in particular developing community-based partnerships, measuring results, and focusing on the optimal access, diagnosis, prescription and compliance.

Patients First starts with the premise that no one can take issue with: Things can be better in our health care system, in every way. Dr. Montague’s prescription for improved health care – how patients, practitioners and policy-makers can make incremental improvements that will make things better – is supported by case studies, population-based evidence and first-person testimonials.
