Sounds to me like the problem lies with labor costs associated with labour agreements (union contracts with staff).... not mismanagement.

Of course the majority of money is spent on staff. There is no health care system without doctors, nurses, x-ray/ultrasound/MRI/CT/NM/Lab technologists, porters, unit clerks, physical therapists, etc. Then on top of that you have food services that makes food for the retail side as well as all the food for the patients, security, facilities management, trades people, etc.

I still maintain that mismanagement is the cause for the deficit in the AHS budget.
