Federal Dental Insurance Plan Details Unveiled: What You Need to Know

 

 The CDCP is a federal plan that offers dental care benefits to uninsured Canadians with a household income under $90,000. Canadians must meet certain criteria, such as not having access to dental insurance, filing a tax return, and having out-of-pocket expenses for dental care. 

The plan covers various dental services, such as cleaning, fillings, root canal treatments, and dentures. The plan will reimburse a percentage of dental procedures, but some people may have a co-payment depending on their income level.

The plan is expected to start rolling out by the end of 2023, with the first claims processed in May 2024. The plan will be administered by Sun Life, which has been awarded an Early Work Agreement by the federal government.
