Summary

The Southwestern Public Health Unit will be implementing a publicly funded dental program for low-income seniors as mandated by the province. The eligibility criteria for the program aligns with the co-payment reduction under the Ontario Drug Benefit. The request will determine how many seniors are eligible for the co-payment reduction. Results will help to estimate client volumes, which will inform resourcing and planning of dental services.
