Making right choices - Brantford Expositor - Ontario, CA: "Making right choices
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
