Learn about Canada's health care system, including Medicare, funding, accessing health care services and delivery.
Medicare is a term that refers to Canada's publicly funded health care system. Instead of having a single national plan, we have 13 provincial and territorial health care insurance plans. Under this system, all Canadian residents have reasonable access to medically necessary hospital and physician services without paying out-of-pocket.
Roles and responsibilities for health care services are shared between provincial and territorial governments and the federal government.
The provincial and territorial governments are responsible for the management, organization and delivery of health care services for their residents.
The federal government is responsible for:
•setting and administering national standards for the health care system through the Canada Health Act
•providing funding support for provincial and territorial health care services
Delivering health care services to specific groups
We provide certain direct health care services to some population groups, including: First Nations people living on reserves Inuit serving members of the Canadian Forces eligible veterans inmates in federal penitentiaries some groups of refugee claimants
Other federal health-related functions
We are responsible for the regulation of products, such as: food consumer products pharmaceuticals cosmetics chemicals pesticides medical devices radiation-emitting devices like cellphones The federal government also supports: health research health promotion and protection disease monitoring and prevention The government also provides tax support for health-related costs: tax credits for: disability medical expenses caregivers and disabled dependents tax rebates to public institutions for health services deductions for private health insurance premiums for the self-employed
