Extended Healthcare Professionals Coalition (EHPC)
The Extended Healthcare Professionals Coalition (EHPC) is a coalition of organizations representing over 100,000 regulated health professions that make up Canada’s health care landscape, including audiologists, chiropractors, dental hygienists, dentists, denturists, dietitians, occupational therapists, optometrists, physiotherapists, psychologists, speech-language pathologists, and social workers.
As regulated professions, these practitioners play a vital role as part of every Canadian’s health care team and ensure timely access to the treatment needed. EHPC speaks with a singular voice to ensure that health services provided in the public and private sectors are fully recognized by stakeholders and decision-makers and are accessible to the Canadian public.
