by The province has launched an ideas contest for healthcare workers and people in jobs linked to healthcare.
The government says the Healthcare Improvement Challenge will give the workers a chance to win a $1,000 for submitting their ideas for improving the system.
It says the ideas should be simple and easy to put in place with little to no funding with eligible submissions entered into a random draw for up to 50 prizes of $1,000.
Twenty ideas will be shortlisted by a review panel, and Nova Scotians will then get to vote for their top 10.
The top 10 ideas will be considered priorities, and the government says it will work with health-system partners to bring them about, where feasible.
