Protect Team-Based Care in Ontario
Tell decision-makers that the CPSO’s updated Delegation of Controlled Acts policy is disrupting patient access.
Why it matters:
The CPSO’s updated Professional Obligations: Delegation of Controlled Acts policy requires physicians to clinically assess every new patient before, or within two business days of, a Physician Assistant initiating a delegated controlled act. This non-risk-based requirement is already creating duplicate visits, delaying care, and limiting the ability of PAs to support team-based practice in community and specialty settings.
Help us urge the CPSO, your MPP, and the OMA to adopt a practical, risk-based approach that protects patients without restricting access.
