  • Decreased Shr Funding for Outpatient Physiotherapy in Saskatoon
    DECREASED SHR FUNDING FOR OUTPATIENT PHYSIOTHERAPY IN SASKATOON The Saskatoon Health Region (SHR) contracted Smithwick's Physiotherapy to provide outpatient physiotherapy services to clients in Saskatoon for many years. The number of patients provided this service was 1440 annually, the equivalent of 2.5 Physiotherapists. The demand for the funded appointments exceeded the contract allocation, thus a wait list of 12 weeks was expected at the completion of the contract in March 2017. The contract allowed for one assessment and three visits per client annually. News was recently received that the SHR would not be renewing the contract at the end of March due to the SHR's recent financial sustainability plan and the need to decrease their spending going forward. Smithwick's Physiotherapy will continue to offer private payer and third party insurer services that they have always provided. This decision has left a huge void in our community for outpatient physiotherapy services, especially in a demographic that economically demonstrated the most need. The Saskatchewan Physiotherapy Association and other providers are seeing an increase in inquiries about how to access funded physiotherapy services in Saskatoon. There are Saskatchewan Health insured outpatient services available at the following sites funded through Saskatoon Health Region: Royal University Hospital provides outpatient physiotherapy services prioritizing more urgent needs such as post-surgical patients, acute injury, patients with lymphedema and pediatric patients for whom the long term impact would be significant if treatment is delayed. At this time Priority 1 wait time is 2-3 weeks. For chronic conditions, such as low back pain, the wait time is approximately 3-4 months.
