Important changes to the Ontario drug benefit programme

BY CLAUDIA MCKEEN On November 29, 1995 Ontario's Finance Minister Ernie Eves announced sweeping changes to the Ontario Drug Benefit programme. He has introduced cost sharing and other changes that will have significant -nne. ope,- - S ore. impacts on all users of the plan. s. Here are the changes that will be immediately visible; Effective December 6, 1995 the ministry will only pay for . 06-Cej'IV-15 ytxJ Tve. besT 11(-1 ov-O quantities up to 100 days supply.

This is to prevent stockpiling of prescription medications prior to cost sharing which is to begin June 1, 1996. Effective June 1, 1996 the ministry will no longer pay for brand name drugs when a less expensive generic is available. Currently if your Designer Consignments doctor writes and signs "No Substitute" and fills out the appropriate is 397 Richmond Road, Ottawa. paperwork then you could get the brand name at no extra cost. Under the Heather's located at new legislation you will have to pay the difference in price plus the other 725 - 2275 cost sharing portion. Cost sharing is being introduced June 1, 1996 as follows: Recipient Net Income Co-payment single senior $16,000 or less $2 per prescription senior couples $24,000 or less $2 per prescription single seniors over $16,000 first $100 then the $6.11 fee per prescription CASUAL FOOTWEAR senior couples over $24,000 first $100 EACH then the 860 BANK ST. OTTAWA $6.11 fee per prescription Just South of 5th Avenue 231-6331 social assistance N/A $2 per prescription The government estimates that half of all low income seniors will pay $32 or less each year and half of those on social assistance only $8 (single) and $24 (family) toward their drug benefits. The government believes that this plan is expected to save an estimated $225 million in each year. But at what cost? 'Jason's Outfit Pharmacists feel that this is forcing people to choose which medications to continue and which ones to discontinue. This programme will force people to enter into the health care system at the point where the public purse begins to pay. With these changes to the health care system it will to Ati end up costing more in hospital admissions and procedures that could have been prevented by compliant use of medications. Anyone having questions about these changes can call the Ministry of Footwear for Health INFOline at 1-800-268-1154 or speak with your pharmacist.

The Government plans to review the Ontario Public Library Act, which prohibits fees for service. The Ottawa Public Library does not at present have a formal position on user fees.
