Ontario On Track to Hit Key Primary Care Milestone
From Ontario Health
This week, the Ontario government is marking important progress in its plan to connect everyone in the province to primary care or a family doctor.
As a first step in its $2.1 billion Primary Care Action Plan, the province committed to connect the 235,000 people that were on the Health Care Connect waitlist as of January 1, 2025 to a family doctor or primary care team by spring 2026. As of this week, that initial waitlist has been reduced by half, with the province on track to hit its initial commitment next spring.
