Saskatchewan's Surgical Wait Times Rated The Worst In Canada
Frontier Centre in the Media - Ben Eisen is interviewed by the Regina Leader-Post regarding Frontier's release of our 2009 Canada Health Consumer Index. Front page coverage from December 16, 2009.

The Henry Ford of Heart Surgery
Dr. Shetty, who entered the limelight in the early 1990s as Mother Teresa's cardiac surgeon, offers cutting-edge medical care in India at a fraction of what it costs elsewhere in the world. The approach has transformed health care in India through a simple premise that works in other industries: economies of scale. Geeta Anand writes that the Narayana Hrudayalaya Hospital models high volume patient care which keeps their operating costs down. Worth a look from the Wall Street Journal.
