Ontario extends Temporary Locum Program for rural/northern hospitals until September 30th.
Ontario extends its Temporary Locum Program, which helps rural and northern hospitals avoid temporary ER closures, for another six months, until September 30th. The program, established during the pandemic, provides a premium for doctors from urban areas who fill shifts on a locum basis in more isolated hospitals. The government is currently working on a permanent solution in collaboration with the Ontario Medical Association.
