Did you get paid for every hourly code you billed last month?
Most Ontario family physicians aren't so sure.
RADAR allows you to:
- log your hours in just a few seconds
- copy a detailed EMR stamp in 1 click
- optimize your indirect time against the 25% cap.
When the remittance advice arrives, RADAR tells you which of those hours were actually paid.
One day of missed hourly billings can be worth up to $1,120.
The hours tracker is free and needs no account. An account is needed to back up your hours and to read and reconcile your RA.
Built by Ontario family physician Dr. J. Kwan.

How it works
Log your hours (on our free mobile or desktop app)
Upload your RA
Check what was paid
A few taps at the end of the day. RADAR keeps the totals and the dollar value, and writes a plain-text EMR stamp you paste into the chart: hours, codes, and what the indirect (Q312) and administrative (Q313) time was spent on.
Your MCEDT download, or a PS Suite export. Patient information is removed in your browser and never reaches our servers.
RADAR lines up the hours you logged against what the Ministry paid, and flags the ones that were unpaid or paid short.
How close you are to the 25% cap
Indirect and administrative time is capped at 25% of your billable hours.
The dashboard updates these figures as you log hours during the month.
The rest of the RA
Where the month came from. Capitation, out-of-basket billings, shadow billings, premiums, bonuses and hourly Q-codes.
What the year is on track for. A fiscal-year projection from the months you've uploaded, split by source.
Where your preventive care bonuses stand. How close you are to each threshold, and which ones the RA has not paid yet.
Overview. The month's cheque, roster count and annual projection.
Illustrative figures, from the live demo dataset.
I'm a family doctor in an FHO+ group. For years I opened my RA, scrolled past pages of codes, and trusted that it was right. One month I sat down and added it up myself, and the numbers didn't match what I expected.
RADAR is the tool I wanted that day, so I made it for you. It has no corporate parent and no ads, and it exists to help you check if you actually got paid for your work, so you can focus on patient care. Try it on your next RA, and let me know what you think!

Common questions
Is this affiliated with the Ministry or the OMA?
No. RADAR is independent, built and run by a practising FHO+ physician. Who's behind it, and how it's funded.
Where does my data live?
In Canada, encrypted, visible only to you. The RA is de-identified in your browser first, so patient names, health card numbers and chart references never reach our servers, and an upload is refused if that can't be verified. Details in the privacy policy.
What file do I upload?
The remittance advice you download from MCEDT, or the plain-text RA export from PS Suite. Only the MCEDT file carries the per-claim detail, so it is the one that can check your logged hours against what was paid.
What's free and what isn't?
The hours tracker is free and needs no account: log Q310 to Q313 and generate EMR stamps without signing up. Those hours stay on the device you logged them on.
An account is needed to back them up and to upload your RA, which is what reconciles the hours against what the Ministry paid. That side is free during the beta, no card. The full RA dashboard will include a fee once the beta ends, and early supporters keep the rate they join at.
