Disclosure of Expenses
The creation of 14 LHINs in 2006 ensured that those who lead the development of the local health system are working in the communities they serve. By building cooperative relationships with health service providers and with the public users of the health system, LHINs are realizing greater efficiencies and more effective health care.
The Central West LHIN is a mix of urban, suburban and rural communities covering approximately 2,590 square kilometers and includes Brampton, Caledon, Etobicoke, Malton, Orangeville, Rexdale, Woodbridge and Dufferin County.
The Central West LHIN represents 6.1% of Ontario’s population and is experiencing unprecedented growth. Between 2001 and 2006, the population grew by 18.1% which was the highest growth rate among the 14 LHINs in Ontario. The population is expected to grow by 25% between 2006 and 2016.
The Central West LHIN works with health service providers to plan, fund and integrate health services.
The Central West LHIN now funds 53 Health Service Providers with total transfer payments of 728,122,000 in 2009/10. The LHIN Operational budget amounted to less than 0.6% of the total transfer payments. This includes the 23 full-time staff and all board and consultant costs.
Our Health Service Providers include:
• 2 Community Health Centres (with 2 satellite locations)
• 1 Community Care Access Centre (CCAC)
• 2 Hospital Corporations (across 5 sites)
• 10 Mental Health and Addictions Services Providers

Committed to ensuring the highest standard of integrity when spending tax payer’s dollars on all operational matters from the procurement processes to travel expenses, the Central West LHIN ensures that all staff and Board Members are consistently in compliance with provincial spending and procurement practices.
The Central West LHIN is committed to being open and transparent and is in compliance with the Public Sector Expenses Review Act, 2009 which was created to strengthen and reinforce accountability, transparency and oversight of government expense claims. As per direction received from the Minister of Health and Long-Term Care, the LHIN has created this page which details the expense reports of Board Members and Senior Staff as they engage with our stakeholders in managing the local health care system. All expenses are in accordance with the government's Travel, Meal & Hospitality Expenses Directives.
