19 Clinics in BC? China connection to private data? hmm..... For now, says Dix, private clinics can remain in business under the NPD, taking pressure off the public system by performing selected procedures on contract to the health regions.
“A lot of the private surgical centres right now — a huge part of their business is us,” he said. “The only thing I’m asking of them is to obey the law, which is not to extra bill.”
Still, I expect some private operators are sensing a more chilly climate under the NDP.
