The four-year agreement comes after contentious and lengthy talks. Optometrists withdrew from performing provincially insured eye services from September to November 2021 amid a dispute over the amount they were being reimbursed.
A statement Friday from Health Minister Sylvia Jones said optometrists have ratified a four-year funding agreement that includes an increase to payments for some OHIP-insured services and eye exams for social assistance recipients, but it didn’t detail amounts.Article content “Together, we were able to come to a long-term and sustainable agreement. Through their OHIP card, people of all ages will continue to be connected to high-quality and publicly-funded eye care that better reflects the latest best practices and expert advice.”As well, seniors will no longer be able to receive unlimited minor follow-up assessments after an annual eye exam.

No big cash injection for Toronto in Ontario budgetIt wasn’t the budget Toronto was hoping for. Despite months of pleading from city leaders, the $204.7-billion provincial spending plan didn’t include the major funding injection the municipality says it needs to shore up its COVID-battered accounts. Deficit interest...only.... eats up alot. Some are going to suffer Unfortunately. Taxes are high now. Well maybe municipalities need to start looking where there is extra fat they can cut instead of spending money they (and we) don't have Fordie is not going to give Toronto any money because he’s afraid a Lefty will be the next Mayor.
