The ULP Greater Victoria Pilot, initially set to end June 30, 2024, has been extended until March 31, 2025. We’re grateful that we can continue to work towards meeting your increasing demand for physician coverage.
The program currently has 17 locums providing coverage in varied capacities, and 140 host physicians from 47 clinics from the Victoria and South Island PCNs have joined. Remarkably, ULP locums have covered 900 shifts between October 2022 and February 2024.
The demand for locum coverage still surpasses the supply, with the ULP having fulfilled 49% of the coverage requests since the pilot started.
If you haven’t joined yet, we’re still accepting applications from both locum and host physicians who want to be part of this innovative program. Find details on benefits and how to join here.
