## Resource

Qualitycast North is excited to bring you a special 4-episode series celebrating the 25-year anniversary of The Royal Commission on the Future of Health Care in Canada and the subsequent, ground-breaking, Romanow Report. About the Royal Commission and Romanow Report In 2001, the Federal government launched the landmark Romanow Commission, to examine the future of Canada’s publicly funded healthcare system. Led by Roy Romanow, the Commission combined extensive research, expert analysis, and one of the largest public consultations in Canadian healthcare history. Through engagement with healthcare professionals, governments, Indigenous organizations, and tens of thousands of Canadians, the Commission developed evidence-based recommendations aimed at strengthening the sustainability and accessibility of Medicare for future generations. In the fourth and final part of this special series we interview Dr. Gordon Hoag , a retired clinical pathologist, senior Physician Quality Improvement Co-Lead and one of the founders of British Columbia’s Physician Quality Improvement Program. We talk about how the now 25-year-old Romanow Report remains relevant to issues facing healthcare today, how having conversations around improving health system quality remain paramount and how physician-led improvement continues to offer hope for health care’s future in British Columbia. We hope you enjoyed this 4-part special series on the Romanow report. Please check out the links below for some useful resources and our website for more great Qualitycast North episodes.
