Question

In the Canadian healthcare system, which of the following services are covered under private insurance?

	A.	Hospital services
	B.	Public health services
	C.	Physician services
	D.	Dental and vision care

Answer 1

Ans) Dental and vision care

Explaination:

- About 70% of Canada's healthcare funding is via the public system. Another 30% comes from private funding, divided approximately equally between out-of-pocket funding and private insurance, which may be complementary (meeting costs not covered by the public system such as the cost of prescription medicines, dental treatments and copayments) or supplementary (adding more choice of provider or providing faster access to care).

- There are, however, financial disincentives that make private medicine for services that are covered by Medicare less economic.
