|
|
On September 11 at the ESPUM Agora, Erin Strumpf, Professor at McGill University and CIRANO Fellow, and Mehdi Ammi, Professor at Carleton University and CIRANO Associate Researcher, will present the conclusions of their study Addressing epidemiological crises: yes, but at what cost? In this study, the authors show that epidemiological crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic highlight the precarious nature of public health investments. Moderated by Roxane Borgès Da Silva, Professor at ESPUM and CIRANO Fellow, a panel will discuss decisions and trade-offs in the allocation of expenditures between major public health functions so as to better understand the consequences of the choices that are made. Luc Boileau, National Director of Public Health, will be among the panel experts, along with Olivier Jacques, Professor at the Université de Montréal School of Public Health and CIRANO researcher, and Thomas Bastien, Executive Director of the Quebec Public Health Association. This conference will launch CIRANO's 2024-2025 thematic year, with the theme of Efficiency at the heart of the Quebec health care system.

Public Health Funding in Quebec: Trade-offs and Consequences
|
Wednesday, September 11, 2024
|
| Epidemiological crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic highlight the precarious nature of public health investments. In Quebec, health promotion, disease prevention and ongoing surveillance of the health status of the population have been relegated to the back burner during the pandemic. While necessary, efforts to monitor emergencies and health risks and protect health have been at the expense of other public health actions. This could have had deleterious effects on population health. Organized in collaboration with the École de santé publique de l'Université de Montréal (ESPUM) and the Centre de recherche en santé publique (CReSP), this panel will discuss decisions and trade-offs in the allocation of expenditures between major public health functions and provide a better understanding of the consequences of the choices that are made. |
