Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) makes dental care more affordable and accessible for Canadians without private insurance. By covering a wide range of essential dental services, the CDCP reduces financial barriers and encourages regular dental visits, leading to better oral health and early problem detection. The plan especially benefits low- and moderate-income families, seniors, and children, promoting health equity and overall well-being across Canada while helping to lower long-term healthcare costs.

Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP)

The Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP) provides essential, temporary health coverage for refugees, refugee claimants, protected persons, and certain other groups in Canada who are not yet eligible for provincial or territorial health insurance. IFHP covers doctor and hospital visits, diagnostic tests, emergency care, limited dental and vision services, mental health support, prescription medications, and assistive devices. This coverage ensures newcomers receive vital medical care and support during their transition to life in Canada, promoting health and well-being.
