Health Equity Impact Assessment (HEIA) Tool

2021

Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care

Description

This website provides access to the HEIA tool, for use by organizations across Ontario's health care system and health service providers, as well as by organizations outside the health care system whose work can have an impact on health outcomes. The tool is comprised of a template and a workbook that provides instructions on how to use the tool. It takes users through five steps of the health equity assessment process (scoping, potential impacts, mitigation, monitoring, and dissemination), with results recorded in the template. Additional supplements are available for specific populations, such as LGBT2SQ, immigrant and French populations as well as a special segment for public health sector staff in applying HEIA.
