I have been saying for a while now that insurance fraud is to blame for the lack of healthcare funding in Brampton. Brampton is known for the highest auto insurance rates because of scammers and fraud, so why would they stop there. If people keep turning a blind eye to this it is only going to spread and get worse, this recent incident is only the tip of the iceberg.
My theory is that hospitals in Brampton are underfunded because of higher than average health insurance claims, some of which might be fraudulent, and over use by a largely unaccounted for population.
On average across Ontario $2000 per citizen is allocated towards hospital infrastructure while 36% of the health budget goes towards OHIP. The Brampton hospital infrastructure budget however only receive $1000 per citizen. One potential explanation for this could be OHIP claims being greater than the provincial average of 36% directly taking away from the infrastructure budget.
I have shared this theory many times on reddit and would often get downvoted.
