The Quebec Health Care System: Its Implication for Medical Education

Des Marchais, Jacques E.

Journal of Medical Education, 50, 8, 773-8, Aug 75

Since November 1, 1970, doctors in Quebec have been operating under a government-controlled compulsory and universal "fee-for-service" insurance plan. This article reviews resulting changes and examines implications for medical education of "global medicine," team care, external control of costs, and a new role for the hospital. (Editor/JT)
