This hospital is accessible to the average Canadian as well. It's covered by the same system that Rand and stupid fricks like him claim don't work. As far as wait times... says at the bottom of the page no referrals are required and walk ins are welcome so I guess that answers that question.

Ontario Patients
Ontario’s Hospital Insurance Plan (OHIP) covers all costs to Ontario residents for public ward rate hospital accommodation and physician services.
Semi-private rooms are available at an additional cost. Patients with private insurance may be eligible for reimbursement on submission of paperwork we provide to you on discharge. We do not bill insurance companies directly on your behalf.
All charges are payable on admission by credit card, bank draft or cash.

Non-Ontario Canadian Resident Patients
Provincial health insurance plans cover all costs to Canadian residents for public ward rate hospital accommodation and physician services. Hospital ward charges are billed directly to respective provincial health ministries, with applicable physician services subject to payment by patients on admission. These fees may be submitted to provincial health plans for reimbursement based on paperwork provided to you on discharge. The amount you will be reimbursed will be dependent on your provinces applicable schedule of medical fees.
All qualifying patients will receive an admission letter with a breakdown of fees specific to their surgical procedure and related hospital stay.
Semi-private rooms are available at an additional cost. Patients with private insurance may be eligible for reimbursement on submission of paperwork we provide to you on discharge. We do not bill insurance companies directly on your behalf.

US and International Patients
All patients who have submitted their medical questionnaire for assessment and have been qualified for surgery will receive a letter outlining our estimated fees specific to their stated surgical procedure and related hospital stay. Patients with private insurance coverage may be eligible for reimbursement on submission of paperwork provided to you. We do not bill insurance companies on your behalf, however, Shouldice Hospital has no-cost consultants trained to help you with your claim (as foreign insurance coverage is complicated we encourage all patients to pre-approve their coverage prior to admission).
All charges are payable on admission by credit card, bank draft or cash.

Whoa Einstein.
Rand knows more about this topic then nearly any combination of 100 other DC politicians and/or bureaucrats. He certainly knows more about it than do you.

Your presumption is that this facility works under the same model as standard Canadian facilities. It does not. Your presumption is very poorly informed. Reduced wait times AND no requirement for referral exemplify that.

Shouldice is far more akin to the Surgery Center of Oklahoma than to standard Canadian facilities.
