First May session of our e-Learning series, co-hosted by Momiji Health Care Society, Japanese Social Services (JSS), and Yee Hong Centre for Geriatric Care  is to learn about Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP).

The session will be held in English with Japanese Interpretation.

What is this session about?

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) helps to make the cost of oral health care more affordable for uninsured Canadian residents with an adjusted family net income of less than $90,000. In this session, you will learn about eligibility criteria, CDCP costs, how to submit an application, when to submit a application to renew your CDCP, questions to ask before visiting an oral health care provider and what services are covered.
