title: Barer and Stoddart revisit the issue of funding academic health centres.
abstract: Four years after Drs. Morris Barer and Greg Stoddart presented their landmark report, Toward Integrated Medical Resource Policies for Canada, to the country's deputy ministers of health, not much progress has been reported on the reformation of Canada's academic health centres. A recent survey of respondents consulted for the original report showed "a deafening lack of responses" that indicated the situation has improved since the report was issued. Government respondents had a more positive opinion than administrators of the centres.
