All Nations Health Partners ‒ Ontario Health Team

What All Nations Health Partners ‒ Ontario Health Team does

All Nations Health Partners – Ontario Health Team (ANHP OHT) is a publicly funded healthcare coordination entity designated as Ontario's first Ontario Health Team with full First Nations, Métis, Indigenous and community partnership, serving approximately 30,000 residents of Kenora and ten surrounding First Nations communities (the population more than doubles in summer months). Formed in 2015 as the Kenora Area Health Care Working Group in response to physician shortages, it was formalized by a framework agreement on February 16, 2017, and operates under the Connecting Care Act, 2019. The organization coordinates an integrated network of 16+ partner organizations — including the 66-bed Lake of the Woods District Hospital, Sunset Country Family Health Team clinics (Lakeside/Kenora/Keewatin), Kenora Chiefs Advisory Ogimaawabiitong (serving six First Nations), Waasegiizhig Nanaandawe'iyewigamig (WNHAC), Wiigwas Elder and Senior Care, CMHA Kenora, FIREFLY, Northwestern Health Unit, and Grand Council Treaty #3 — under a consensus governance model rooted in Seven Sacred Teachings and Truth and Reconciliation Commission Calls to Action Nos. 18–24.

ANHP OHT's core 'products' are programmatic: a Primary Care Network (PCN) anchored by the locally developed Rural Generalist Care (RGC) model that pools physician resources via centralized compensation; integrated Mental Health & Addictions services including the HART Hub and Supportive Housing; a Hospice Working Group and Palliative Care Resource Guide; the Community Patient Advisory Council (CPAC) and Traditional Healers Advisory Council (THAC); and digital health tools — Ocean eReferral, Central Wait List Management for diagnostic imaging across five hospitals, a shared digital patient record, online booking/patient portals, and an Integrated Decision Support (IDS) tool for population health analytics, all governed by OCAP principles for Indigenous data sovereignty.

The organization is funded through Ontario's public healthcare system: services are paid via the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP), with provincial transfer payments flowing from the Ontario Ministry of Health and Ontario Health to partner organizations — there are no direct patient charges for insured services. The business model is therefore managed-services-style coordination of publicly funded care rather than commercial revenue generation, with a community-led go-to-market focused on attaching residents to primary care providers (targeting 100% attachment by 2029), Indigenous language/cultural navigation services, and integrated care pathways across hospital, primary care, mental health, public health, long-term care, and community supports.

Direct peers

• Western Ontario Health Team (WOHT): Designated Ontario Health Team serving London-Middlesex and surrounding areas. Comparable as a direct OHT peer in governance, funding model, and integrated care delivery mandate, though focused on a southwestern Ontario urban catchment rather than northwestern rural/Indigenous communities.
• First Nations Health Authority (FNHA): British Columbia's Indigenous-led health authority responsible for planning, funding, and delivering health programs to First Nations communities. FNHA is the closest analog to ANHP OHT's Indigenous-led, culturally safe integrated-care mandate, though operating at a larger provincial scale.
• Mississauga Health: Designated Ontario Health Team coordinating integrated care across Mississauga under the same OHT framework. Comparable as a direct peer in funding mechanism and integrated care coordination, though serving a large urban population rather than ANHP's rural/Indigenous catchment.
• Burlington Ontario Health Team: Designated Ontario Health Team serving Burlington and surrounding areas. Comparable as a direct peer OHT in governance and integrated care mandate, though operating in a different geographic and demographic context than ANHP's northwestern Ontario service area.
• East Toronto Health Partners (ETHP): Another designated Ontario Health Team operating under the same provincial OHT framework established by the Connecting Care Act, 2019. ETHP coordinates integrated care across acute, primary, and community partners in East Toronto, making it directly comparable to ANHP OHT as a peer in the OHT model, though serving a much larger urban population.
• North York Toronto Health Partners (NYTHP): Designated Ontario Health Team coordinating integrated care across North York under the same OHT framework as ANHP. Comparable as a direct peer in governance structure, funding mechanism (Ontario Health), and integrated-care mandate, though operating in an urban rather than rural/remote context.

Regional players

• Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre: Tertiary care hospital and health service provider in Northwestern Ontario — the second-largest healthcare centre in the region. Comparable as a regional peer serving similar northwestern Ontario populations and a key referral destination for ANHP's LWDH, though operating as a single institution rather than an OHT coordinating network.
• Northwest Health Alliance (NHA): Alliance of healthcare organizations across Northwestern Ontario coordinating regional health services. Comparable to ANHP as a regional healthcare coordination entity in the same geography, though structured as an alliance rather than a designated OHT under the Connecting Care Act.
