Ontario has announced its first call for proposals to develop and expand up to 80 primary care teams to serve 300,000 patients this year as part of the provincial plan to build a system that connects individuals to a family doctor based on their postal code.
The province is investing $213 million to support the first call for proposals as part of the more than $1.8 billion the government is investing to add 305 new primary care teams across the province, Health Minister Sylvia Jones said in an April 10 press release
