My husband has dental coverage through his work benefits.. but someone at his work was telling him about some dental work for Children under 6 years of age being covered by OHIP.
Is there anything to this or complete B.S.? And if it actually is legit then what sort of procedures are covered?
Most dental work is NOT covered by OHIP. There are some exceptions, eg Cleft Palate work. The age part does not come into account, you could be 6 or 50...it is dependant on the procedure.
Your best bet is to either call the Claims Dept at OHIP or your dentist should know if it is covered or not.
From the OHIP site:
Dental Services in Hospital :
The ministry pays for some dental surgery, when it is done in hospital. You must pay the cost of regular dental services in a dentist's office
