[stuff deleted] Among additional “concerns” alleged in the report: - Three specialists “inappropriately delegated” duties — for which they billed OHIP and which were supposed to perform themselves — to unqualified individuals to undertake. - Six claimed to have worked between 356 and 364 days of the year. - Eight recorded notably high volumes of claims and/or patients. One radiologist, who worked 332 days, billed for 100,000 patients, indicating that more than 300 scans were interpreted per day, the report stated. - Eleven billed OHIP incorrectly. - An obstetrician/gynecologist billed for seeing male patients. ====
