Without accurate data, it's nearly impossible to design effective attachment programs.

Helping patients get connected to the right care starts with a deep understanding of the care providers practicing in each region. Without accurate, validated data, it's nearly impossible to design effective attachment programs or support providers in managing demand. Good data enables patients and clinicians to be matched effectively, so resources are used where they're needed most.

Case Study

Connecting Patients to Virtual Care Across Central Ontario

Empower Health provided the digital infrastructure for same-day virtual appointment booking serving more than four million people across Ontario's Central Region. Designed with local partners, the platform offered an easy-to-use experience in multiple languages and supported public access to care year-round.

In a 2025 pilot, patients without a primary care provider, while booking virtual urgent care, could choose from 16 local interprofessional care teams accepting new patients. After their virtual visit, each patient was referred directly to their chosen clinic for ongoing care.

This project shows how Ontario-made digital tools can simplify access, improve coordination between urgent and primary care, and support regional attachment goals — all while making care easier to navigate for patients and providers.

Empower Health's platform gave us a patient-centred, flexible tool that supported year-round virtual care and smoother coordination with local teams. It helped us connect patients to the right care faster and more effectively.
