PolitiKit

The organization is advocating for policy and administrative improvements to the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) to ensure it aligns with clinical standards, supports fair and sustainable reimbursement for providers, and improves access to care for patients. Key areas of focus include revising eligibility criteria and treatment timelines, addressing gaps between CDCP fees and provincial fee guides, reducing administrative burden related to claims and preauthorizations, improving clarity and transparency of covered services and exclusions, and strengthening coordination of benefits with other programs. These efforts aim to enhance program efficiency, provider participation, and equitable access to oral health care across Canada.
