Implementation

The Ontario Autism Program (OAP) Provider List is being phased in over two years.

For April 1, 2019, Autism Ontario has focused on launching a clear and transparent approval process.

As its next priority, Autism Ontario will focus on growing the list, and developing:

• A process to renew memberships;
• An appeals process for unsuccessful applicants, and for those who may be suspended or removed from the list; and,
• A process to address complaints about Provider List members.

On April 1, 2021, the OAP Provider List will become mandatory for all Clinical Supervisors who wish to provide behavioural services funded through the OAP.
