Ontario Connecting More People to Primary Care Teams in York-Simcoe
February 13, 2024
York-Simcoe — The Ontario government is investing 1.4 million to connect more people to primary care teams in Georgina. This is part of Ontario’s $110 million investment to connect up to 328,000 people to primary care teams, bringing the province one step closer to connecting everyone in Ontario to primary care.
“This significant investment is exactly what the residents of Keswick and Georgina need. Access to primary healthcare will be closer to home,” said Caroline Mulroney, MPP for York-Simcoe, “This is a critical step towards improving healthcare access for everyone in York-Simcoe and across the province.”
Ontario currently leads the country with 90 percent of people connected to a regular health care provider. As a next step to close the gap for people not connected to primary care in the community, the province is supporting new and expanded interprofessional primary care teams in Georgina.
