When it comes to your health, waiting isn't a plan.

Canada’s public healthcare system was designed to protect everyone — but extensive delays are leaving people without the timely care they expect. Off the Waitlist uncovers what really happens when the system stalls, and how you can prepare before it’s too late.

Drawing on three decades of risk management experience, Ingrid Gahsner explains why the public model can't meet expectations, what alternative options are available, and how you can create an innovative healthcare access strategy to ensure timely care when you need it most.

Inside, you’ll discover how to:

• Separate coverage from protection — and identify access as the real risk.

• Navigate the barriers that keep waitlists long — and plan around them.

• Use innovative products and services to access immediate care when needed.

• Integrate traditional payout and reimbursement products into a modern strategy.

• Move from reactive to proactive so you don't get stuck on the waitlist

"With smart, personalized strategies that blend public, hybrid, and private channels, this book shows Canadians how to get the care they need, when they need it." - Dr. Raymond Rupert, CEO, Healtheon & RCM Health
