Near-north Ontario, French River | Well... you were lied too LOL.. Our healthcare is NOT free.. its funded through taxes.. but you already knew that right? Also, most dental work is not covered by OHIP ( Ontario health insurance plan ). Some dental work, for instance for kids under a certain age ( not sure what the minimum is ) some dental work is covered. I don't have kids so I don't fully know what is an isnt covered. For the most part dental is either covered by third party insurance , either through employers or purchased outright by individuals, or funded by the patient. In my case, being self employed I just pay out of my own pocket. It's not a financial hardship for me, but again I have no kids or dependents . |
