What We Do

Palliative Care Initiative

Palliative Care Initiative

The palliative care incentives help GPs provide compassionate, collaborative, and holistic care to palliative patients by enabling them to take the required time to plan and coordinate end-of-life care for their patients. These fees support the work of family doctors supporting their patients through the various decisions and plans that need to be made to ensure the best possible quality of life for dying patients and their families. This incentive compensates the family doctor for undertaking and documenting a care plan.

Chronic Disease Management

Chronic Disease Management

Chronic Disease Management (CDM) Incentives provide funding for GPs to identify, manage and improve care of patients with diabetes, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and congestive heart failure.. These incentives compensate family physicians for the additional work, beyond the office visit, of providing guideline-informed care to patients with these diagnoses over the course of a full year. To support team-based care, management of chronic diseases can involve Allied Care Providers, who may provide one of the visits required for CDM fees.

Mental Health Initiative

Mental Health

The set of mental health incentives support and compensate family doctors for the time and skill it takes to work with patients with mental health conditions. Doctors develop care plans in collaboration with the patient and their support network and, where needed, become an active member of a broader care team in order to help those patients remain safely in their community.
