Remuneration is fee-for-service as set by the OHIP Schedule of Benefits and Fees.

About the program
It is a very exciting time for Osler’s cardiovascular program which has seen rapid expansion over the last several years, now with over 30 cardiologists providing hospital on-call service. Osler serves one of Canada’s largest catchment areas with one of the highest burden of cardiovascular disease. Osler’s cardiovascular program is currently a Level 4 Regional Cardiac Centre with one of the busiest cath labs in the province. Osler has a growing arrhythmia program including ICD and pacemaker implantation as well as rapidly developing structural heart disease, cardio-oncology, heart failure and cardiac research programs. The future vision of the cardiovascular program is to become a Level 7 Full Service Regional Cardiac Centre with on-site mechanical circulatory support, interventional EP, cardiac surgery and structural heart disease services as Osler transitions to an academic health centre.
