flag Alberta seeks to hire emergency triage doctors, but talks stall over pay and liability, with no deployment date set.

flag Alberta Health Minister Matt Jones remains hopeful about securing a deal to hire emergency triage liaison physicians, despite delays caused by unresolved pay, liability, and administrative issues. flag He says he doesn’t blame doctors for the holdup and confirms a $20 million, two-year funding plan for nine hospitals. flag The Alberta Medical Association criticizes the government’s outdated approach and lack of meaningful consultation, demanding updated pay, reduced bureaucracy, and fair billing practices. flag No timeline for deployment has been set, and if no agreement is reached, the province may assign nurse practitioners or physician assistants to fill the roles.
