This document sets out the process for the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care’s (the “Ministry”) open invitation to providers across the full continuum of care to come
together and demonstrate their readiness to become Ontario Health Teams — groups of providers and organizations that are clinically and fiscally accountable for delivering a
full and coordinated continuum of care to a defined geographic population. This document is designed to guide groups of health care providers and organizations
in becoming Ontario Health Teams. It describes the components of the model, the expectations for Ontario Health Teams at maturity, and readiness criteria to become an
Ontario Health Team. There is an assessment process to enable all Ontario’s health providers to improve readiness and eventually become an Ontario Health Team.
While the goal is for all health services providers to eventually join or become Ontario Health Teams, how health service providers get there can vary depending on numerous
factors, including the readiness of the local health system.

The aim is to implement a new model of organizing and delivering health care that better connects patients and providers in their communities to improve patient outcomes.
