Virtual Care and Pandemic Reflections

Please join us for the 54th in our series “Changing the way we work” on Friday, December 16, 2022, at 7:55-9:15 am.  We will reflect on the important role family physicians have taken during the pandemic by discussing some of the evidence summarized in the 3-part Ontario Science Table briefs on primary care. We’ll discuss practical strategies for integrating virtual care in your office given where we are in the pandemic and the new changes in billing. As usual, we’ll provide an update on COVID & respiratory and answer your questions related to vaccines, variants, treatment and more.
