The healthcare landscape has changed considerably over the past 50 years, with far greater emphasis on the quality of care. Although much progress has been made, there are many opportunities to improve quality and safety of care across Canada. The new Saskatchewan healthcare management system represents one whole-system approach to achieving better health, better care, better value and better teams, using a Lean-based approach that reflects the dominant issues identified 50 years ago.
