As a part of its research program on the various health care systems around the world, Jasmin Guénette, vice president of the Montreal Economic Institute (MEI), visited Switzerland to see how health care is delivered there. Filmed in the summer of 2012, this report shows how private hospitals make a significant contribution to the efficiency and accessibility of care within the universal health care system. From the testimony of patients, doctors and administrators, we discover a health care system based on solidarity and freedom of choice that is at the cutting edge of technology, in which the very concept of waiting lists is nonexistent.

Dans le cadre de son programme de recherche sur les différents systèmes de santé dans le monde, Jasmin Guénette, vice-président de l’Institut économique de Montréal (IEDM), est allé en Suisse pour constater comment les soins de santé y sont livrés. Tourné à l’été 2012, ce reportage démontre que les établissements privés de santé contribuent grandement à l’efficacité et à l’accessibilité aux soins dans le cadre d’un système de santé universel. Grâce aux témoignages de patients, médecins et gestionnaires, nous découvrons un système de santé basé sur la solidarité et le libre choix, à la fine pointe de la technologie, où le concept même de liste d’attente est inexistant.
