<P> The Lalonde Report is a 1974 report produced in Canada formally titled A new perspective on the health of Canadians . It proposed the concept of the "health field", identifying two main health - related objectives: the health care system; and prevention of health problems and promotion of good health . The report is considered the "first modern government document in the Western world to acknowledge that our emphasis upon a biomedical health care system is wrong, and that we need to look beyond the traditional health care (sick care) system if we wish to improve the health of the public ." </P> <P> Marc Lalonde, who was the Canadian Minister of National Health and Welfare in 1974, proposed a new "health field" concept, as distinct from medical care . Lalonde noted that the "traditional or generally - accepted view of the health field is that the art or science of medicine has been the fount from which all improvements in health have flowed, and popular belief equates the level of health with the quality of medicine ." The new concept "envisage (d) that the health field can be broken up into four broad elements: Human biology, Environment, Lifestyle, and Health care organization;" that is, determinants of health existed outside of the health care systems . </P>
