The provincial government has signed a 94-million-dollar health-care funding deal with Ottawa.
It’s the second province to do so, after British Columbia signed a similar one in October.
The deal is part of a 196-billion-dollar, 10-year national health accord Prime Minister Justin Trudeau offered to premiers last February.
In exchange for its share of the funding, P-E-I has agreed to build 16 new patient medical homes, invest in mental health and make improvements to the health workforce over the next three years.
