After more than two days of meeting, provincial health ministers and the federal health minister have been unable to come up with next steps on health care funding.

In a statement from the Council of the Federation, released while the ministers were still meeting, the organization representing premiers expressed disappointment with the lack of a federal response on the critical issue of sustainable health funding.

The provinces have been asking the federal government to agree to a meeting that would include Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the premiers.

Following Tuesday's discussions, a news conference led by Federal Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos and B.C. Health Minister Adrian Dix will be held at approximately 2:45 p.m. PT.
