Former Canadian Health Minister Jane Philpott is calling for an overhaul of the Canadian health care system.

Philpott, who is now Dean of Health Sciences at Queenās University, is looking to post-secondary education to drive innovation in health care reform. In this Q&A, weāll discuss ways to improve health outcomes through primary care teams, improved access to health data, and government accountability.Ā Ā
