What we do
For many Ontarians, health care in their communities isn’t adequately meeting their needs. Nearly half (47 per cent) of Ontarians without a family doctor say that despite searching, they have not found one[*]. That’s five per cent of the overall population that isn’t receiving equitable care.
In response, the OMF is taking on the challenge to help advance health equity across the province. We’re helping unblock the barriers to health care in the following ways.
Your support can help us give Ontarians a chance at better health.
With your support, the OMF can work towards achieving a more equitable, effective and efficient health-care system in Ontario.
