Developing robust systems for Track 2 MAID in Canada: A qualitative study
The assessment for, and provision of, MAID is unique in healthcare. It is the only federally legislated healthcare act, and it is irreversible. It is also morally contentious, particularly in the case with Track 2 where applicants' years of life lost may be significant. The safe and effective implementation of Track 2 requires a robust systems approach that to-date is available in only some regions of Canada.
