FINDING A PHYSICIAN: New web page, new hotline launched by provincial ministry
Posted By MAGGIE RIOPELLE, SUN MEDIA
People can now find a health-care provider with the click of a mouse or by dialing the phone. The Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care Wednesday launched a new webpage at www.ontario.ca/healthcareoptions, as well as its new hotline to find physicians for people without a family doctor -- Health Care Connect -- at 1-800-445-1822.
Premier Dalton McGuinty called the new service a way to connect Ontarians to more health-care options.
'This tool will help Ontarians make the right health-care choices,' McGuinty said on his website.
'The best health-care service may be closer than people think.'"
This sounds terrific and meets the key conditions of allowing clients choice to services that the public pavs for . Technology can make the difference as pointed out in the bedgridlock myth which was busted.( See Gridlock Myth Buster at the Pro-Active Rants blog.} Using technology was recommended. Hopefully there will be no glitchs in its execution- time will only tell - Q_J
Everyone stands in line or que for the government services that they have paid for through their taxes. As paid customers they should be treated with effeciency, respect, and courtesy. Most often they are not. They face smug indifference, arrogance, unnecessary delays, by the so called " public civil servants" . Q-jumpers is a blog to get services through any other means , offer competitive alternatives and make government services more accountable and customer user friendly.
