Commonwealth Fund survey, 2016

The Commonwealth Fund International Health Policy surveys fill important information gaps by polling patients and providers in a number of developed countries. The 2016 edition of this survey focused on the experiences of the general population (adults 18 and older) in 11 countries.

CIHI’s companion chartbook highlights the Canadian story and examines how experiences vary across Canada and relative to other developed countries.

CIHI and the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) are the national Canadian co-partners of The Commonwealth Fund’s annual International Health Policy Survey.
