All Ontario Political Parties Should Make Clear Commitment Against For-Profit Privatization of Health Care Before October 6 Provincial Election

The OHC applauds the McGuinty government for making a clear commitment to pursue legal action against private for-profit clinics and physicians that charge patients unlawful fees for health care. The government has launched a toll free phone line and email complaint line for patients to use if they have a complaint or question about a fee that they have been charged for health care services.

The toll-free number is 1-888-662-6613 and the email address is: protectpublichealthcare@ontario.ca.
