Health committee  I'm not quite sure I get your question, in terms of what the disconnect is that you're perceiving.

Health committee  One observation, perhaps, is that we would have seen the processes as being quite distinct. At the national level you would have a process that would simply provide the objective information—the best evidence, using recognized and acknowledged experts up front, so that you wouldn't argue later about having the right expert—transparently.

Health committee  Just quickly, I think Dr. Laupacis made the point that for the front-line practitioners, they don't understand the process, nor do they wish to. What they understand is that drugs become available in a variety of ways, they become aware of it, and then there's a long time before they're able to write a script that's covered.
