The CAR is the national voice of radiologists, driving innovation and shaping health policy to improve patient care across Canada.
We advocate on behalf of our members through:
- Meetings with MPs and key stakeholders
- Written submissions to government
- Strategic communications
Effective advocacy focuses on the issues that matter most to radiologists: empowering our members to engage directly with elected officials and decision-makers. Collaboration with the CAR membership is at the heart of our strategy, and it starts with you.
Make an Impact
Here are just some of the initiatives that have helped radiologists be better seen, heard, and understood:
Value of Radiology
The CAR’s Value of Radiology projects highlight how imaging improves patient outcomes and system efficiency. By measuring and demonstrating radiology’s impact, these reports support value-based healthcare and informed decision-making across Canada.
Submissions to Government
The CAR is dedicated to advocating for the advancement of radiology in Canada. Each year, the CAR submits recommendations to the federal government to influence policy and funding decisions that impact medical imaging and patient care.
