Abstract

This report summarizes the results of a survey disseminated to health professional students across Ontario by Students for Medicare. The survey assessed the opinions of these students on the coverage in their formal curriculum of issues pertaining to the Canadian health care system, as well as other avenues through which they sought information. These students showed an interest in learning more about current issues in health care. The majority of students were unsatisfied with their formal education on Canada's health care system.
