Ontario Helping Family Doctors Put Patients before Paperwork

• Our government is making common sense changes that will reduce the administrative burden on family doctors so that they can spend more time caring for patients instead of doing duplicative or unnecessary paperwork.
• We are putting patients before paperwork and tackling the red tape burden for health care workers by cutting unnecessary requirements like sick notes and using innovative AI technology to streamline note taking during patient appointments.
• These initiatives, in addition to other changes aimed at putting patients over paperwork, will free up to 95,000 hours annually for physicians to put back into their practices caring for patients.
• This is one more way our government is making it easier and faster for people to connect to the care they need, where and when they need it.
