ADVOCACY

Healthcare is provincial

Key decision-making as to how our healthcare system is funded and managed happens at the provincial government level. Changes to healthcare policies and legislation that impact you and your profession are changing at a rapid pace – forcing new rules and updating existing guidelines. That’s why today, it has never been more important for you to take an active role in shaping your profession. The Ontario Association of Medical Radiation Sciences is the official voice and registered lobbyist at Queen’s Park that protects and defends the scope of practice for Ontario’s 11,000 medical radiation sciences professionals.
