Ontario Health Insurance Program - vote 1405
The Ontario Health Insurance Program includes key elements of Ontario’s health care system: client eligibility and health card policies, physicians' payments for services that are insured under the Health Insurance Act, other practitioners' payments, out-of-province/out-of-country services, Family Health Teams, Aboriginal Health Access Centers, Nurse Practitioner Led Clinics, midwifery services, underserviced areas, northern health travel grants, teletriage services, disease prevention, health quality, drugs, community laboratories, psychiatric patient advocacy and rights advice, assistive devices including home oxygen, and protection/risk management of both provider and subscriber fraudulent activity.
Publicly funded health services are available from health professionals in various settings from family doctors' offices to academic health science centres, to hospitals, to Telehealth Ontario and Telephone Health Advisory Service where triage advice and health information are provided. Government-funded services are available to Ontarians who have registered, and who are eligible for the Ontario Health Insurance Plan. The Underserviced Area Program helps rural, remote and northern communities recruit and retain health care professionals, as well as ensure access to health care services in these communities. The Northern Health Travel Grant Program helps defray medical related travel costs northern Ontario residents incur to access medical specialist, or health care facility services unavailable in their local communities.
The focus for disease prevention is improving the health and health care for Ontarians living with or at high risk of developing diabetes, congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and hypertension. Ontario Diabetes Programs improve access to and quality of diabetes services to improve the health and health outcomes of individuals at risk of developing or living with diabetes.
Health Quality Ontario (HQO) is the province’s Crown Agency and key advisor to the ministry on health system quality. HQO works with partners across the health system to support evidence-based, high quality health care to contribute to a sustainable health system.

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.
Under the Patients First Act, 2016, in 2017 the LHINs assumed direct responsibility for the delivery and mangement of home care (previously the function of Ontario’s 14 Community Care Access Centres) and primary care planning to ensure that patients receive better coordinated care and that the health system is more integrated and responsive to local needs. LHINs will continue to support LTCHs in sustaining and improving operations while ensuring residents' rights, care and safety remain as the highest priority.
The LHINs exercise their authority under the Local Health System Integration Act, 2006. Additional administrative responsibilities are set out in the Memorandum of Understanding, while operational funding and performance expectations are set out in the 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, home care/LHIN delivered services (formerly 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.

Provincial Programs and Stewardship - vote 1412
This vote includes Provincial Programs, Emergency Health Services and Stewardship. This program is responsible for transfer payment accountability, and operational policy development, including the planning and funding of a wide span of specialized programs. Examples of these transfer payment programs include: Cancer Care Ontario, Cancer Screening Programs, Community and Priority Services, Operation of Related Facilities, HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis C Programs. The program provides Ontario’s share of funding to the Canadian Blood Services and also supports a blood utilization management strategy for Ontario.
In addition to transfer payment activities, Provincial Programs and Stewardship also includes Direct Operating Expenditures for health capital planning and the management and delivery of the Transfer Payments within the Vote, and for the oversight administration (stewardship) of the Local Health Integration Networks.
Emergency Health Services (EHS) ensures the existence of a balanced and integrated system of emergency health services throughout Ontario. The system consists of a series of inter-related programs and services including municipally operated/contracted land ambulance services, the not-for-profit air ambulance organization called Ornge, eight base hospitals that provide medical oversight, and ambulance communications services. Through EHS, the ministry oversees, certifies, and regulates Ontario’s paramedics, and land and air-ambulance services through the Ambulance Act. EHS manages province-wide operations in 11 directly-operated Ambulance Communications Centres (ACCs), provides oversight and transfer payment functions for 11 transfer payment ACCs; and ensures strong operational alignment between all land and air ambulance services providers, healthcare services providers, municipal partners, and First Nations communities.
Note: recoveries under Operating Expense for Stewardship include recoveries of $500,000 from the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Account, which are based on forecasts of anticipated revenues and contingent upon a sufficient balance standing to the credit of the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Account.
