• Acute Services Division

The Acute Services Division was created in 2003, assuming responsibilities previously administered by the Health Care Programs Division. Acute Services Division consisted of the Blood Programs Coordinating Office, Emergency Health Services Branch, Finance and Information Management Branch, and the Hospitals Branch. The division also shared responsibility with the Community Health Division for its Regional Offices, Finance and Information Management Branch, French Language Services, and the Office of Strategic Projects.

In 2006, the division was disbanded and its responsibilities were divided between the Health System Accountability and Performance Division, the Health System Information Management and Investment Division, and the Corporate and Direct Services Division.

The Acute Services Division was responsible for activities relating to Emergency Health Services and Hospitals. This included managing Ontario's land and air ambulance system through the Emergency Health Services Branch, and providing a provincial funding and coordinating role on hospital issues through the Hospitals Branch. Hospital programs and services coordinated by the Hospitals Branch included haemophiliac ambulatory clinics, sexual assault treatment centres, end stage renal disease programs, selected cardiovascular and cancer services, chronic kidney disease programs, organ and tissue donation and transplant programs, and blood programs.
