The province has announced the creation of new Ontario Health Teams serving the Thunder Bay and Dryden-Red Lake-Sioux Lookout areas.

TORONTO – The province has approved applications for new Ontario Health Teams in the Thunder Bay and and Dryden-Red Lake-Sioux Lookout areas.

Ontario Health Teams are intended to allow healthcare providers and organizations to coordinate efforts in addressing gaps in how to better serve community health needs. According to Ontario Health, the teams are also meant to encourage public and private healthcare organizations to work together to find a model of care that best suits the need of their community, while also being “fiscally accountable for the healthcare dollars they spend.”

To do this, Ontario Health will provide healthcare data and analytical support to groups as appropriate, including access to performance measurement data and population and financial analytics "so that they can take a population health approach to re-designing care.”
