The Manitoba Centre for Health Policy (MCHP) is a research unit at the University of Manitoba's Rady Faculty of Medicine. MCHP does research on the health of Manitobans. Its primary focus is the question, What makes people healthy? Many factors affect health, such as health care, health programs and policies, income, education, employment, and social circumstances.
