Patient Enrollment with the Arnprior and District Family Health Team
If your family physician is a member of the ADFHT you will be rostered with the ADFHT. Enrolling with the ADFHT ensures that patients have access to primary health care treatments or advice, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, through a combination of regular and extended office hours, and a nurse-staffed Telephone Health Advisory Services (THAS)
Patient Enrollment Requirements
By completing and signing the Patient Enrollment Form, patients commit to the following:
• To seek treatment from their family doctor or the team first, unless they are traveling or find themselves in an emergency situation.
• To allow the ministry to provide their doctor or the FHT with information about services they have received from family doctors outside the FHT, and some preventative care services.
Patients remain enrolled unless they are no longer eligible for OHIP, move outside of the geographic area of the ADFHT, enroll with a primary health care physician in another group, or choose to cancel their enrollment. Please inform your physician if you are receiving specialized treatment from another doctor outside of the ADFHT.
