Waiting Lists in Saskatchewan are Not Getting Shorter

Saskatchewan is waiting the longest in the country for diagnostic testing.

This from Sask Party Health Critic, Don McMorris.

The government recently released a report saying Saskatchewan waiting lists were getting shorter, but McMorris says that the government included emergency surgeries in that report to make the results look more favorable.

Statistics Canada released a report called "Access to Health Care Across Canada" on Wednesday, and the numbers show that Saskatchewan residents are waiting the longest in the country for diagnostic testing.

Only people in Newfoundland/Labrador wait as long in the country to see a specialist.
