A B.C. man leading a campaign against hospital pay parking says that all five health authorities in the province saw an increase in revenue this year.
Jon Buss, founder and lead volunteer of HospitalPayParking.ca, reports that B.C. collected a whopping $36,388,000. Last year, the province collected $34,441,000, which was $1,947,000 less than this year. As such, the province saw a 5.65% increase over the previous year, which Buss notes is well above the rate of inflation.
Buss remarked in a release that, “hospital administrators are willing to further exploit patients to continue accessing this easy source of revenue.”
