Ministry Mandate
The Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care is changing its focus and embracing a new direction. As staff continues to work towards better health care for Ontarians, stewardship will become the ministry’s mission and mandate. This new stewardship role will mean that the ministry will
|
provide overall direction and leadership for the system, focusing on planning, and on guiding resources to bring value to the health system. The ministry will be less involved when it comes to the actual delivery of health care and more involved in :
- Establishing overall strategic direction and provincial priorities for the health system;
- Developing legislation, regulations, standards, policies, and directives to support those strategic directions;
- Monitoring and reporting on the performance of the health system and the health of Ontarians;
- Planning for and establishing funding models and levels of funding for the health care system;
- Ensuring that ministry and system strategic directions and expectations are fulfilled.
