The new health care reform legislation passed this year provides incentives, including grants to employers, starting in 2011, to implement the technologies.

  Integration of healthcare is critical to individuals experiencing mental illness and substance use disorders from those who are experiencing mild distress in their lives to individuals who are not able to function in the community due to the severity of their disability. The history of separation of behavioral health and medical services requires major initiatives in professional and public education; new integrated and collaborative service delivery models; and financing models that supports integrated services rather than is a barrier to these services. I fully support the Manifesto and look forward to helping to facilitate these changes.

  May I add two comments which is alluded to within this but not "called out": 1. Health caregiver time (this is a major issue and a bit of a catch-22. If we succeed, then time is saved but the catch-22 is to begin) 2. When you say tradition, I think it encompasses everything you have said, but also our entire healthcare (and country?s) organisational structure (Micheal Porter would agree with this!). 3. You call for a new specialty of integration but according to what you have written and we agree, integration also includes rigorous evaluation (you call for the study projects but I think saying rigorous, but not painstaking [that delays!], evaluation and integration are part of this new specialty

George Bacioiu   Faculty Instructor   University of Windsor   Indeed, the future of the humanity's wellbeing is in prevention rather than a blind race for "fixing" when it fails. It is a complete mindset change that will change fundamentally the way we look at the healthcare system. Sooner we find the way to develop a robust prevention system, sooner the systematic problems in our North American healthcare systems will become manageable. Although fundamentally different and apparently requiring different solutions, both, the US healthcare system and its Canadian counterpart can be simultaneously re-invented based on a unique solution: focus on prevention and promoting individual ownership when it comes to it. Waiting to break in order to apply sophisticated solutions to fix it cannot be the solution to the current situation. Great initiative!

Beth-Ellen Fried, L.Ac., Dipl. Ac., LMT   Fried Acupuncturist, HM   La Paz - Centre for the Art of Medicine   Personalized Healthcare is something the Traditional Chinese medical community has been practicing for thousands of years. Herbal medicine, etc. is dispensed based on each individuals constitution, symptom picture and health goals. When western allopathic medicine learns to integrate it's use and principles fully, taking advantage of both systems, we will have a perfect medicine.
