GREAT NEWS FOR HEALTHCARE IN ONTARIO: I advocated with the Prime Minister and Ministers that federal funding provided to provincial governments for health care be tied to results - and that advocacy was successful! Today, the federal government reached a $3.1 billion deal with Ontario to provide healthcare funding to Ontario tied to outcomes- to ensure Canadians get the care they deserve.
These outcomes include:
• Increasing access to family doctors
• Hiring more family doctors, nurse practitioners and registered nurses
• Reducing wait times for care
• Improving access to mental health services
• Modernizing the health care system, enabling people to access health records online
