Ontario Physiotherapy Association (OPA)

The Ontario Physiotherapy Association (OPA) is a dynamic health care professional organization with

In 1920, Enid Graham, a most remarkable Canadian physiotherapist, fought for and received Dominion Charter for the CPA. From 1939 to 1944, Graham chaired the Canadian Military Affairs Committee and succeeded in securing the granting of officer rank to all CPA physiotherapists who volunteered for overseas duty during World War II. Of the 340 qualified physiotherapists in Canada, 138 volunteered for

overseas duty, were paid and had privileges equal to male volunteers of similar rank. Enid Graham is to the profession of physiotherapy in Canada what
Florence Nightingale was to the profession of nursing worldwide. She was a visionary, a true leader and the ultimate
champion for the profession as it has evolved. On December 31, 1993, with the proclamation of the Regulated Health Professions Act (RHPA) and the Physiotherapy Act, physiotherapists were recognized by the provincial government as one of a restricted number of self-governing health care professions. The College of Physiotherapists of Ontario is the regulatory and disciplinary body for physiotherapists in Ontario. From its inception, OPA has been a strong voice for the profession because of physiotherapists' commitment to work together through a united professional association.

Auto insurance rates are higher than they have ever been. But if you're injured in a car accident, the funding for your physiotherapy is still based on rates from 2014.

Twelve years without an increase is long enough. This outdated framework is making it harder for physiotherapists to provide care and harder for people injured in car accidents to access the rehabilitation they need.

That puts access to care at risk. Ontario needs to update physiotherapy reimbursement rates now.
