Three of the audits focus on health care, including a review of access to primary health care, as the government works toward its goal of providing every Ontarian with primary health care by 2029.

The auditor will also prepare Family Medicine Medical Education Oversight and Physician Billing Oversight Reports, which will examine DOH systems to identify inappropriate spending.

In another health-related review, the report will also look at the management of the province's personal protective equipment stockpile.

The auditor's report will also include an analysis of the Productivity and Resource Recovery Authority, the regulator of manufacturers of batteries, tires and blue box materials.
