Open Consultations
The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario values your feedback on
policies, regulations, by-laws and other initiatives that are in development, and
we invite you to participate in our open consultations.
Complementary/Alternative
Medicine Policy
We are seeking your input on the current
Complementary/Alternative Medicine (CAM)
policy, which sets out expectations for
physicians who practise CAM, who don’t
offer CAM but have patients who pursue
CAM, or who wish to have professional
affiliations with CAM clinics, therapies, or
devices.
Delegation of Controlled Acts
Policy
We are seeking your input on the current
Delegation of Controlled Acts policy, which
sets out expectations for physicians about
when and how they may delegate controlled
acts, through either direct orders or medical
directives. The policy sets out guiding
principles to help determine appropriate
circumstances for delegation and includes
expectations related to quality assurance
and ensuring the ongoing competence of any
delegate.
The deadline to provide feedback is May 6, 2019.
