For healthcare providers in the auto insurance sector the recently published Ontario Government sunshine list is a read-it-and-weep situation. Heading into year 13 with 0% increase we see that government decision makers with the power to do the right thing are doing considerably better than we are.

Average % increases 2025 for those earning $100,000+

FSRA --> 23.5%
Ministry of Finance --> 10.5%
MPPs --> 35%
Healthcare providers. --> 0%

With each passing month more healthcare professionals are leaving the auto insurance sector to work in other areas of healthcare where they will be fairly paid .

Who will look after injured drivers once weโ€™re all gone?

Adding insult to injury.

In Ontarioโ€™s auto insurance system, vehicles are repaired quickly and at current rates.

But injured Ontarians are increasingly unable to access the rehabilitation care they need.

While auto insurer profits continue to rise, underpaid healthcare providers are being forced to leave the industry, leaving patients with fewer options, longer wait times, or no care at all.

Why are auto repairs paid at 2026 rates, but not professional rehabilitation services?

If you work in this sector, youโ€™re seeing the impact firsthand. ๐‡๐’๐๐ฌโ€ฆ๐ก๐ž๐ฅ๐ฉ ๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐š๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ฒ ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ! ๐’๐ก๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ง๐ž๐ญ๐ฐ๐จ๐ซ๐ค ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐š๐  ๐š ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐œ๐ข๐š๐ง ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ ๐ฌ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ ๐›๐ž ๐ฉ๐š๐ฒ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐š๐ญ๐ญ๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง.

What goes up does not come down when weโ€™re talking about the cost of Ontario auto insurance. Thanks to the double standard employed by FSRA when it comes to regulating insurers and healthcare providers, premiums have increased 67% on average in the 12 years that healthcare professionals have worked without any increase.

This isnโ€™t balance. Itโ€™s a double standard.

The Ministry of Finance and FRSA, who regulate this sector, seem to find nothing amiss in the chasm between the treatment of healthcare professionals desperate for an increase for more than a decade, in comparison to insurers who can seek rate increases on a ๐ช๐ฎ๐š๐ซ๐ญ๐ž๐ซ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐›๐š๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ.

This impacts more than providers, it impacts access to care for injured Ontarians.

If you work in this sector, you see this every day.

Zeros for Heroes - Time Travel:

Healthcare workers in the auto sector have worked 12 years without an increase in professional fees. Strange but true. Regulated Healthcare Professionals such as physiotherapists, occupational therapists, nurses, speech-language pathologists, registered massage therapists and others who provide rehabilitation to those injured in Ontario auto accidents have had their hourly rates frozen since the last cost of living increase was awarded in 2014.

This isnโ€™t just about providers. Itโ€™s about access to care. When experienced clinicians leave the sector, injured Ontarians are left waiting. Where is the action? Where is the transparency?

If you work in this sector, you know this reality. HSPsโ€ฆhelp us amplify this!
