In which report was an emphasis placed on patient-centered healthcare delivery?

The Romanow Report emphasizes patient-centered healthcare delivery by advocating for a system that focuses on the needs and preferences of patients. This report, officially titled "Building on Values: The Future of Health Care in Canada," was released in 2002 and aims to enhance the quality of care and ensure that healthcare systems are responsive to the individuals they serve. It emphasizes the importance of a healthcare system that provides accessible, equitable, and comprehensive services, with a particular focus on the experiences and outcomes for patients.

By placing patients at the center of healthcare delivery, the report calls for strengthening the role of healthcare providers in understanding patient needs, improving communication, and fostering a more collaborative approach to health services. This shift towards patient-centered care leads to better health outcomes and increased satisfaction for individuals receiving care, making the Romanow Report a pivotal document in the evolution of Canadian healthcare policy focused on the patient’s experience.

While the other reports and acts may touch on various aspects of healthcare, they do not specifically emphasize the patient-centered approach to the same degree as the Romanow Report.
