8/10 The gov't was told the expansion would not save money.

In fact, #AHS data showed #orthopedic #surgeries in #CSFs cost MORE, "in some cases by as much as 50 per cent."

The #UCP "committed to releasing the cost... and then they didn’t."

4/10 #Anesthesiologists are scheduled to work in #CSFs "sometimes against their will."

#Doctors are "preferentially assigned" to #CSFs.

Why?

Due to "political influence exerted by CSF owners" who "complained directly to the government," which then "put their thumb on #AHS" to force staffing.

2/10 Dr. Ken #Cheung, a 25-year Calgary anesthesiologist, is a "conscientious objector" to #UCP policy.

He says he must work in private #CharteredSurgicalFacilities (CSFs) he finds "morally inappropriate," resenting being "directed to help establish the #for-profit #surgery industry."
