The CDCP aims to help support some of the cost of various oral
health care services and reduce financial barriers to accessing
care for eligible Canadian residents who do not have access to
private dental benefits.
The CDCP will only pay for oral health services covered within the
plan at the established CDCP fees. These fees
ARE NOT the same
as the provincial oral health association's suggested fee guides
that providers use to charge for oral health services.
The CDCP will reimburse a percentage of the cost, based on
established CDCP fees and your adjusted family net income. The
percentages paid by the patient are called co-payments. The
co-payments are the percentage of the treatment fee that is
NOT covered under
the CDCP. Co-payments will be paid by the patient directly to the
oral health care provider at the time of treatment.
