Prairie North playing waiting game with provincial government
Recent comments by Premier Brad Wall about potential changes to health administration in the upcoming budget are making their way through the Prairie North Health Region (PNHR).
On Monday. April 25, Premier Wall hinted public sectors should look at reducing financial amounts in administration in favor of frontline staff or savings. During the election, the Sask Party made a campaign promise to annually cut administration costs by $7.5 million.
PNHR CEO David Fan said the comments caught the region off guard.
“I must say it came as a surprise to us. So at this point we’re really not sure what that means and what is being signalled by government,” he said.
