Abstract

The purposes of this paper are three: First, we provide an overview of the reinbursement policy situation across the country, emphasizing common elements that have emerged since the earlier article, but also providing a more detailed description of current policy in a subset of provinces. Second, we describe briefly the structure and intent of the joint management committees or equivalent that have emerged to 'co-manage' the process of public expenditure control. Third, based on these analyses, we offer an updated set of "lessons from Canada".
