Financing Models for Virtual Care

Robert S. Bell and Matthew Chow

Abstract

Principles for determining physician compensation in the provision of virtual care are discussed along with analysis of the virtual care components included in the 2022 Ontario Physician Services Agreement (SEAMO 2022). Ministries and medical associations should continue to discuss appropriate payment for virtual advice for patients who do not have a primary care provider. They should also determine methods for payment for physician engagement in apps designed to optimize treatment of chronic diseases.
