Eligibility

To qualify, you must: be a Canadian resident for tax purposes; have an adjusted family net income under $90,000; not have access to employer/pension-sponsored or private dental insurance; and have filed your tax return in the previous year. ▪ If you have dental coverage through a provincial, territorial, or federal government social program, you can still qualify for the CDCP. Visit the website for details. ▪ If you have a spouse or common-law partner, you both need to meet the eligibility criteria to be able to qualify for the CDCP. Visit the website for details. The program will be implemented in a phased-in approach - see details above.

Application Process

Visit the CDCP website for information on when you can apply and further details.

Documents Required

- Social Insurance Number (SIN) (if available for children)

- List of dental coverage through government social programs (if applicable)

Fees

Co-payments based on adjusted family net income:

Lower than $70,000 - 100% of eligible oral health care service costs will be covered at the CDCP established fees.

Between $70,000 and $79,999 - 60% of eligible oral health care service costs will be covered at the CDCP established fees.

Between $80,000 and $89,999 - 40% of eligible oral health care service costs will be covered at the CDCP established fees.


Additional charges
The CDCP fees may not be the same as what providers charge. Patient may have to pay fees in addition to the potential co-payment if:

◦ the cost of the oral health care services is more than what the CDCP will reimburse for these services

◦ patient agrees to receive care that the plan doesn’t cover

◦ before receiving oral health care, always ask the oral health provider about any costs that won’t be covered by the plan.
