Locum Solution for General Surgeon Shortage
1. A Centralized Co-ordination of
Locums for the Provision of Surgical
Care to Remote and Rural Locations
A CAGS Pilot Project
2. The Problem
Canada, as the 2nd largest country in the world
by area, poses a unique geographic challenge to
the delivery of universal health care to all
Canadians
3. The Problem
Most Canadians live in a very narrow band close to
the border with the USA
The vast majority of the country, though is sparsely
populated
The question arises: “How do we provide care to
those living in remote areas when population
density doesn’t warrant significant health care
infrastructure?”
4. How do we provide care
for those Canadians
living in the the black
area on the map?
5. CAGS Locum Office Pilot Project
It is NOT realistic to have a low volume solo
surgical practice in a remote location
It may be feasible to have a remote site covered
by an ongoing rotation of several surgeons
6. CAGS Locum Office Pilot Project
This model has proven effective in the province
of Quebec
There are obstacles to providing inter-provincial
locum coverage
7. CAGS Locum Office Pilot Project
CAGS is proposing the creation of a centralized
office to manage locum coverage across the
country
This office would aid in matching appropriate
candidates to sites that are in need of coverage
The office would aid the locum surgeon with the
necessary paperwork, etc. to do the job

mining town of about 13,000 people with a

12. About Thompson
Thompson already has Ob/Gyne coverage
Anaesthesia is provided by a mix of FRCSC
trained and GP anaesthetists
Currently, Thompson is staffed by a combination
of locum coverage by surgeons from Winnipeg,
and a part-time local surgeon

15. Issues to Resolve
CAGS is working on the details of licensure
across jurisdictions
Currently, the CAGS office will assist in helping
surgeon from outside Manitoba acquire the
essential documents
Work is being done to reduce the amount of
paperwork and fees associated with licensing
16. The Goal
CAGS hopes to create a centralized Locum Office
housed at CAGS
If we can keep Thompson, Manitoba fully staffed for
the next year, we will have proof of concept
Once proof of concept is established we can expand
the program to other areas of Canada, helping to
ensure access to surgical care for all Canadians
