Virtual care is here to stay. With smart implementation, it can improve access, efficiency & equity. But integrated poorly, it can make things worse. Appreciated the opportunity to explore this issue with @TheGameSheet @thebigstoryfpn Have a listen: link.chtbl.com/UYIyzPYC
Is virtual care the answer to improving the health care system? Dr. @tara_kiran, family physician and researcher at St. Michael's Hospital, was on @thebigstoryfpn talking about the pros and cons of virtual care: thebigstorypodcast.ca/2024/04/24/can…
Thanks for sharing! Folks, this is a great role to work with a team incld @tara_kiran on cutting edge work with #primarycare data

Getting rid of sick notes for illnesses ≤3 days is a good step forward for reducing unnecessary admin work for family docs. Thanks @OntarioCollege @OntariosDoctors for your advocacy on this issue

5 things to know about measles vaccination for Canadians. New from me in @CMAJ with @DrSamiraJeimy @KylaHildebrand1 cmaj.ca/content/cmaj/1…
"Citizens of Canada, unite. Demand of your gov'ts, providers & health-care organizations a primary care system fit for purpose in the 21st century." thestarphoenix.com/opinion/column… by Steven Lewis People in Canada were given a voice through OurCare.ca. Let's listen & act.
#OurCare engaged 150+ members of the public in deep dialogues where they spent 30-40 hrs learning and deliberating to improve #primarycare Why did they volunteer? What did they learn along the way? Watch our latest video to hear directly from them youtu.be/c2RgRD2ImTc
Terrific to meet @trishgreenhalgh yesterday. We discussed the #primarycare crisis in the UK & Canada and the importance of generalism in healthcare ICYMI, here's one of my fav recent papers from her team illustrating safety & equity issues in virtual care qualitysafety.bmj.com/content/early/…

Opioid-relates deaths rose dramatically during the pandemic resulting in 250 000 years of life lost in 2021 alone & representing more than 1/4 of deaths among younger adults We need an urgent public safety response @Tara_Gomes @DavidJuurlink @CMAJ cmaj.ca/content/196/14…
There are many parallels b/w the healthcare crisis in the UK and Canada The @bmj_latest commission on the future of the NHS puts forward a renewed vision for the future. Can #OurCare be the start of a Canadian consensus? #Quality2024 bmj.com/content/384/bm…
It was fun to speak today at @QualityForum in London UK with this terrific group @HINSouthLondon @catdawo @sophie_lowry on working with patients & communities Great to see the interest in using OurCare.ca methods to advance patient-driven policy in other countries
#Podcast alert: Spoke with host @menakarw #TheDecibel re implementing the right to primary care. theglobeandmail.com/podcasts/the-d… Described the #OurCare Standard established by @tara_kiran et al after listening to >10,000 Canadians about what we need in every neighbourhood. #HealthForAll
I’m in the UK doing some cross-country learning Discovered this terrific podcast—a convo b/w 2 women GPs and system leaders Remarkable that despite different systems the challenges we face in primary care are remarkably similar podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the… @NishaManekMD @NextGGP
Primary care should be a legislated right. That >6.5 million people in Canada go without it is antithetical to the values people hold dear and the promise of Medicare Thanks @janephilpott for this terrific op-ed. I can’t wait to read your book! theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
Over 6.5M Canadians don’t have access to primary care. The OurCare report, led by Dr. @tara_kiran, family physician at St. Michael’s Hospital and scientist at @MAP_Health, aims to address this. She talks with us about OurCare and her hopes for how it will shape primary care. 1/2
Primary care should be accountable to the communities it serves. This was a key recommendation from the #OurCare consultations. What does it mean? Thanks to @BCHC for inviting me to do a deeper dive with colleagues from @REACHCHC @UMHealthCoop Watch: youtube.com/watch?v=tOhKd-…
In Ontario, we are seeing measles cases, in part due to routine childhood vaccinations missed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Make sure children are up to date with their vaccines 👉bit.ly/3IYij4C

Keeps me optimistic that we've reached the inflection point.
@petrosoniak bro I have a lot of faith in St. Mike's, @tara_kiran, MAP and ourcare.ca in being the leaders in reshaping this space. Was reading @cdavidnaylor's opening salvo in the Star from 1983 this weekend on the need for a non-partisan data-driven 🇨🇦 institute of health...
As a wealthy Canadian, I am in favour of the proposed tax changes. One can’t say they’re progressive if they don’t value wealth equity. Trickle down economics is a scam & it’s laughable that the 0.13% think they single-handedly hold economy up. 19bn goes to much needed services!
Raising the capital gains inclusion rate to 2/3 on the largest investments will bring in $19 bil over 5 years, creating an important revenue stream to fund things like housing, childcare, and food programs. It’s long overdue and a very good thing! #Budget2024 #CdnPoli
Good to see @globeandmail calling for the educational gap between Indigenous people and everyone else to be closed - now. Among other things, this would go a long way to reducing the life expectancy gap - currently about 10 years. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/editor…
Today is my work anniversary: Started working at the @globeandmail on April 20, 1987. 37 years later: A little less hair, a little more wisdom. #journalism
Then the hard work begins: break silos and the "my skill set is better than yours" mindset. We must start training in teams, respect expertise, include patients in the dialogue and optimize the services we can provide Canadians. @AFMC_e @tara_kiran @docdanielle 6/
ED Peer-to-Peer is a gem of a program. Real time virtual supports decrease professional isolation and make rural ER work more sustainable. I am a HUGE fan of this program! Thanks @KylieBoothDr and @HowardOvens and team for hearing the needs of rural ER docs in Ont.
Exciting session @SRPCanada by Fil Gilic on the success of @OntarioHealthOH Peer-to-Peer Program first year. Apparently Wawa is a top caller for advice and made it onto the map. Bottom line is great service to ask a friendly ER doc their thoughts! #ruralmed
I’ve actually received health care in Norway. They do have a fantastic system. But it’s not because of *private* insurance. It’s mostly because they spend a lot more *public* money on health care than we do - roughly $2K more per person!
Forget the ‘American-style’ boogeyman, Canadian health care should be more like Norway’s.🇳🇴 In Norway, about 10% of people have private insurance, by @JoshDehaas thehub.ca/2024-04-17/jos… via @TheHubCanada
The April issue of the Medical Post magazine is hitting doctors’ mailboxes now. Keep an eye out for it..! From AUSCULTATIONS / news quotes: @markhollandlib @tara_kiran @DrRitaMc
Congratulations to @DrKathleenRoss1 who made the @macleans Power List for Health Care for her advocacy in #CDNhealth, and to health & planetary expert Dr. @courtghoward, who made the Power List for Climate. This recognition is beyond well-deserved👏macleans.ca/society/the-po…
Great to meet with Prof Tara Kiran from U of Toronto at @greentempleton today!
@tara_kiran @bmj_latest Agreed, I found the same when listening at @quality2024 about the parallels. I hope #OurCare can be the start of, or spark that can lead to forward movement.
Heading home and reflecting on the @QualityForum. So grateful to have had the opportunity to present with Aurora, Faith and @catdawo on the @HINSouthLondon Lived Experience Partner role, and to share the stage with @tara_kiran in our session on partnering with people #Quality2024
Thank you @Writersfest for curating a wonderful evening. People clearly want Canada to have a health system with primary care for all - and they’re ready to raise a rallying cry😁 #HealthForAll
Big thanks to @janephilpott for such a wonderful evening. Jane's book "Health for All" is available anywhere books are sold (like @PerfectBooksOtt for example!). Health for All is a great opportunity to learn from the lived experience of one of Canada's most foremost experts.
