The Case of Toronto's Methadone Scheme

Paper Summary:

Medical malpractice is a topic which has gained considerable attention in recent years. This paper briefly reviews a recent case in which doctors at a large chain of methadone clinics in Ontario billed OHIP for medical tests that were described as excessive and were rarely used for the care of methadone patients. This paper provides the facts of the case and identifies the legal issues at stake. The paper also applies an analysis of the legal issues raised and offers a brief discussion of how the case should be decided. In the final analysis, although the facts of the case would seem to lend themselves to a fairly summary disposition of the matter, things are actually a little more complex than they might at first appear.
