Ontario Health Teams
In 2019, Ontario Health Teams (OHTs) were introduced as a way of better connecting a fragmented system. Since then, 58 teams have been approved and are seeing successes, including more efficient hospital-to-home transitions, strengthened primary care foundations, improved digital health and virtual care access, better data and analytics, and more meaningful partnership and engagement with patients, families, and caregivers.
OHTs are a new way to organize and deliver health services, bringing together multiple health care providers as one collaborative team to provide patients with better connected and more conventient care, closer to home.
For more information on OHTs, visit the Government of Ontario website. You can also sign up to read updates from the Ministry of Health and sign up to receive them in the future.
