"Northumberland Hills Hospital’s Collaborative Budget Strategy (Cobourg, Ontario, Canada)","richards1000","Northumberland Hills Hospital's collaborative budget strategy was a process in which a representative sample of 24 citizens -- participants in a citizens' advisory panel -- provided the hospital's board with input regarding how the hospital's services should be prioritized, for purposes of reducing the hospital's budget. In this process the hospital employed public opinion survey research and MASS LBP's Civic Lottery and Citizens' Reference Panel methods.
