ODSP Guidance & Information
Your Health Coverage
ODSP provides coverage for essential health costs beyond what the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) covers. This includes:
Prescription Drugs
Most prescription medications are covered through the Ontario Drug Benefit (ODB) program. Ensure your doctor knows you are an ODSP recipient.
Vision and Dental
You and your family members are entitled to routine eye examinations and necessary dental care through specific programs. Coverage limits and conditions apply.
Applying for Special Benefits
Specific benefits, like the Special Diet Allowance, require an application form completed by a qualified health professional (e.g., doctor, nurse practitioner).
