HALDIMAND—The Ontario government is updating the income eligibility thresholds for the Ontario Seniors Dental Care Program and the Seniors Co-Payment Program to allow more of Ontario’s most vulnerable seniors to have access to dental care and affordable prescription medications.

“Our government continues to support Ontario’s seniors by ensuring they have access to the quality dental care and affordable prescription medications they need,” said Haldimand Norfolk MPP Toby Barrett. “For years, I heard from area seniors questioning why there was no low-income dental care in Haldimand Norfolk. This government has made no-cost dental care for low-income seniors available province-wide.”
