Episode Synopsis
Among bold new ideas to address the challenge around rural healthcare delivery is the call for a mobile medical service, with doctors ready to be deployed where and when they're needed.

Dr. Wilson was co-chair of a recent initiative called the Canadian Collaborative Taskforce: Advancing Rural Family Medicine. She’s now part of a group working to implement the recommendations of this project, contained the Taakforce's Rural Road Map for Action. New to the pod?
