How Germany gets hip, knee surgeries done faster than Canada

from White Coat, Black Art

Canadians in some provinces can wait years for a new hip or knee. In Germany, it can take just weeks. Transplanted Canadian Elizabeth Sandomeer had each of her knees replaced in under three months. Orthopedic surgeon Dr. Sebastian Braun says there are many reasons why Germany can get those surgeries done faster. One of the biggest drivers is the competition between hospitals for funding, something that Braun says is lacking in Canada's health-care system.
