Gélinas: Auditor’s Report Shows No Oversight of Physician Billing
QUEEN’S PARK — Ontario NDP Shadow Minister for Health, France Gélinas (Nickel Belt) questioned Health Minister Sylvie Jones about the discoveries made in the Ontario Auditor General’s 2025 Annual Report.
“The Auditor General yesterday told us that six different people filed complaints about being billed illegally by a physician, but that didn’t trigger anything.
She told us that 59 physicians billed for more than 24 hours in a single day, some billing for over 100 patients per day.
More than 100 physicians billed for working every single day of the year, and some even billed for more days than there are in a year.
There could be some very valid reasons why this is happening, but there are $600 million in limbo. How come none of that ever triggered any need for action from this government and none of that ever triggered any need for a review?”
Ontario Auditor General’s 2025 Annual Report was released Tuesday December 2nd.
