Ontario Ministry says doctor supply not major concern in arbitration
Ontario argues in its arbitration with the Ontario Medical Association that physician supply is not a major issue. The province cites an 8.9 percent growth in doctors from 2019-20 to 2023-24 versus 7.1 percent population growth, and a 10 percent rise in average physician income while patient encounters per doctor fell 3.7 percent. The OMA seeks substantial pay increases to address recruitment and retention amid concerns of two million residents without a family doctor and thousands of unfilled positions.
