In the mid-1990s, Ontario’s health care system continued to undergo profound change with demands to restructure while maintaining or improving health outcomes. Funding constraints, combined with changing demographics, emerging technologies and prescription drugs resulted in reduced real dollars for health care.
As in the 1994 edition, this research atlas analyzes data about status, expenditure, and delivery of health care in Ontario. In addition to updating information in the last edition, this report covers additional topics such as physician billing patterns and impact of length of stay on hospital readmissions. As well, information is provided on utilization and expenditure trends in mental health and pediatric services.
