Those include a yet-to-be-tabled safe long-term care act and the implementation of a pharmacare bill that is still being studied in the Senate. He was at the University of Toronto’s dental faculty, in its largest clinic, to share an update on a signature NDP-Liberal policy, the national dental-care program.
Holland rejigged the process in July so dental offices could skip registering in advance and process individual claims instead. “The NDP has made a political decision and that’s theirs to do, but now we’re operating on a case-by-case basis,” said Holland.
