The Ontario government has tabled the Your Health Act which, if passed, will expand the role of private health clinics in an effort to reduce the surgical backlog in the province, starting with cataract surgeries.

Dr. Rose Zacharias, president of the Ontario Medical Association, joins Patricia Boal to break down the proposals within the legislation and assess whether it will be effective and any concerns with the rollout and how it impacts the healthcare system.
