Dental Plan (Lisa Needs Braces)
With the new national dental care plan, Canadian taxpayers are now underwriting the dental industry. More than one million Canadians have dental care under the new national insurance plan, with an average spend of $730 per patient. By 2025, the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) will expand in a big way, and will cover 6 million additional Canadians.
As taxpayers start to foot the bill for dental care, how do we make sure dentists are not overprescribing services for their patients?
