Ministry of Health and Long Term Care
Local Health Integration Networks and Related Health Service Providers - Vote 1411
As steward for the long-term sustainability of Ontario’s health care system, the Ministry collaborates with 14 Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs) to promote a patient-focused, value driven, integrated and co-ordinated health care system. While the Ministry provides strategic direction and guidance, the LHINs are responsible for planning, integrating and funding health service providers in their local health systems. The LHINs exercise their authority under the Local Health System Integration Act, 2006. Additional responsibilities and performance expectations are set out in the Memorandum of Understanding and Accountability Agreement between each LHIN and the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. The LHINs have the flexibility to address unique local health needs and priorities through the management of services in public, private and specialty psychiatric hospitals, community care access centres, long-term care homes, community health centres, community support services, community services for persons with acquired brain injury, assisted living services in supportive housing, mental health and addiction agencies. The Ministry, in partnership with LHINs, ensures the delivery of accessible, community-responsive and high-quality health care for all Ontarians.
