The TCMO developed these briefing notes to support informed, evidence-based advocacy on behalf of Ontario’s Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture professionals. Throughout this past year, the Board identified several priority mandates affecting the safe, effective, and integrated delivery of TCM/Acupuncture within Ontario’s healthcare system.
Each briefing note below summarizes key issues, regulatory considerations, and recommendations presented to government, regulatory partners, and sector stakeholders. These documents reflect the TCMO’s commitment to advancing professional standards, strengthening patient access, and ensuring that our profession’s unique contributions are clearly represented in policy discussions.
The briefing notes for this year’s mandates are provided here for reference and transparency.
