Doctors NS on the plan to fix health care

Tim Houston's government released its plan to address challenges in health care last Friday on the last day of the Spring Sitting of the Nova Scotia Legislature. It's a 31-page strategic report called Action for Health and it spells out some of the goals and self-described solutions for Healthcare. Critics say it doesn't contain specific benchmarks or timelines and there won't be a chance to question costs or other details because the House has risen for the session. Doctors Nova Scotia (DNS) is the professional association representing physicians in this province. They were involved in the Speak up for Healthcare Tour just after the Progressive Conservatives were sworn in as government. Doctor Heather Johnson is the president of DNS. She's optimistic by nature and says if we can be nimble and think of ways to reorganize, there is a chance this plan can make a difference.
