Statement by the Ontario Medical Association regarding negotiations with the Ontario government of the Physician Services Agreement

Posted by Betty Tűndik October 5, 2018

 

The OMA Board’s top priority is a reasonable and fair Physician Services Agreement (PSA). Physicians are now going into their fifth straight year of working without a contract. In that time, the Province has cut funding year after year so much so that frontline physician service has been affected.

Following the election of the new Government, the OMA agreed to return to the bargaining table to see whether the two sides could agree on a PSA without going to arbitration. Unfortunately, the differences between the two sides have proven to be too great and so, mediation ended today.

The OMA and the government will now resume arbitration. Arbitration dates are the scheduled for entire week of October 22-26th. While this is a frustrating development, the OMA is committed to supporting its doctors so that they in turn can take care of their patients.

Hi everyone! Nice to e-meet you! Here are a few things you should know about me.


I am a conscientious, open minded, adaptable to new experiences and ambitious Business Development Manager with a Bachelor's Degree in Economics - Banking, Finance and Accountancy. Through my studies I've also obtained many naturopathic and nutrition degrees as well. Part-time jobs have added marketing, network marketing, event management and store management skills to my experience through my career.


Through my career I have also been a Hotel Manager and owned a Bar/Restaurant & Internet Cafe. My online marketing and social media interactivity experience was gained when me and my husband started a business with an online/organic webshop & healthy lifestyle consultancy.


I've improved my English at Cambridge Academy of English - 2003, in Cambridge. I live a conscious lifestyle, and try to protect the ecosystem. Animal lover and capable of helping others without judgement or negative reactions, this is thanked to my knowledge in holistic therapies and the naturopathy courses I've followed.


I cannot leave far my spiritual growth and the continuous development in alternative and holistic therapies, so I'm learning at Kyron School of New Consciousness, receiving a Bio Energo-therapist diploma.


Thanks to all my experiences I've decided to venture into publishing and writting, while also continuing to learn many new things daily.
