Patient’s Bill of Rights
The Canada Health Act declares that the primary objective of Canadian health care policy is to protect, promote and restore the physical and mental well-being of residents of Canada through a public health care system, and asserts five commanding principles to ensure access to health care services is guaranteed to all without financial or other barriers. Those five principles are accessibility, universality, portability, comprehensiveness, and public administration and funding.
In Ontario, the Tommy Douglas Act (Bill 22) codifies the rights of residents of Ontario who receive health care services, in the form of a Patients' Bill of Rights.
