    Description:

    This report provides results of the Health Services Access Survey (HSAS), which is now part of the Canadian Community Health Survey.

    Data on waiting times for specialized services such as specialist visits for a new illness or condition, non-emergency surgeries and selected diagnostics tests are also presented.

    Geography: Canada
    Description:

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X20010026061
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    In 1998/99, just under 7% of Canadian adults reported having had unmet health care needs in the previous year. In over half of cases, these were attributable to acceptability problems such as being too busy. About a third of episodes were attributable to perceived availability of service (long waiting times, for example). Accessibility (cost or transportation) problems were factors in just over 10% of cases.
