Alberta plans to allow doctors to deliver public and private services
November 18, 2025
Alberta intends to allow physicians working in the province’s public health care system to simultaneously offer services in a parallel private market, according to confidential draft legislation obtained by The Globe and Mail.
Premier Danielle Smith’s government has prepared draft amendments that would transform the Alberta Health Care Insurance Act and establish a model for medicine unlike any in the country. No other Canadian province allows doctors to offer care under both systems at the same time.
