Abstract

Au Canada et au Québec, l'assurance-maladie publique procure un accès équitable aux soins de santé à tous les individus, indépendamment de leur capacité à payer. Toutefois, cela pourrait se faire au prix d'une surconsommation importante de soins médicaux. En effet, l'apparente gratuité des soins de santé incite les usagers à consommer des services de santé au-delà de ce qui est efficace pour l'ensemble de la société. Il en résulte des coûts importants qui contribuent à augmenter les dépenses gouvernementales en santé. Cela n'est pas sans lien avec la situation actuelle des finances publique du Québec. Cette surconsommation peut cependant être réduite par des mécanismes provenant de la demande (co-paiement, ticket modérateur) ou de l'offre (forme de rémunération des médecins). Le recours à des systèmes de rémunération plus efficaces pour les médecins permettrait de réduire le coût des soins de santé et d'encourager une provision efficace de ceux-ci. Plusieurs mécanismes de paiements pourraient permettre d'atteindre ces objectifs. Le rapport « Système de paiement des médecins : bref de politique » en fait une revue.
