Standing Committee on Finance recommends the federal government fund CCS’s national reporting system on cardiac care in Budget 2021.

This is the fourth consecutive year that the Standing Committee on Finance (FINA) has recommended that the CCS receive $2.5 million per year for three years ($7.5 million total) to sustain and expand national reporting on cardiovascular care quality in its 2021 pre-budget report (Recommendation #8).

This among other demonstrations of support serves to support the CCS as we navigate conversations with key decision-makers leading up to the release of the 2021 federal Budget. We expect that the budget will be released in March or April.
