The one and only stop in northwestern Ontario for the Rural and Northern Health Care Panel took place in Dryden yesterday.
Liz Sandals, the Health Minister's Parliamentary Assistant, says non-urgent medical transportation was one of the key issues discussed.
"The problem of you need health care. It's not an emergency so you can't get an ambulance. How do you get to where the doctor is?," says Sandals. "How do you get to where the dietitian is?"
The panel will make its recommendations to the Legislature later this year.
