Views On Health Delivery
West has written several articles calling for Manitoba and Canada to develop new strategic plans for health care delivery. She believes that the Canada Health Act should be re-examined, and more private medicine introduced into the public system. West has written favourably of France and Sweden's combined public-private models, and has criticized the delivery system of the United States of America.
West and provincial Health Minister Dave Chomiak engaged in a public controversy over health care strategies in late 2001 and early 2002. In the same period, West argued that Manitobans should pay health-care premiums instead of paying for health expenses through general taxation.
