For the first time in this province's
history, Ontarians can now find out how long they can expect to wait for
key health services at hospitals. This site contains the most up-to-date
information about wait times in Ontario, with a breakdown for five specific
health services by individual hospitals that provide those services.
This information will allow
people to make informed choices about their health care, and track the
progress the government is making in delivering on one of its key health
care commitments. Wait times are one of the ways we all measure the quality
of the health care we are receiving. The best medical procedure in the
world might not be good enough if it isn't delivered in time.
The Ontario government has a
plan to reduce wait times and increase access to five major health services:
cancer surgery, cardiac procedures, cataract surgery, hip and knee replacements,
as well as MRI and CT exams.
The number of hospitals that
were reporting wait times data and the number of procedures that were completed
in July 2005 are summarized in the table below. The information has been
supplied and verified by individual hospitals as part of the province's
Wait Time Strategy.
