Dymond has announced that residents of the Province may stili -receive full Ontario Medicail Services Jnsuranoe Plan coverage and benefits by July lst providing they enroil ini the Plan before May l6th. 1 he, Plan is a success, declared the Minister. "The number of applications received already cover more than 1,100,000 of ourcitizens." Dr. Dymond added, how- ever, that a large number of residents had indicated they would join OMSIP but for a varîety of reasons had been unable to send in their application in time, The OMSIP open enrolîment period has therefore been extended by two weeks in order that t hese persons may qualify for coverage from the day the Plan goes into effect on July lst. "The May l6th deadline is final," added the uinis- ter. "This enrolîment dead- Une cannot be extended any further because it takes time to process such a flood of applications even with the most modern equipment available." The exte nsion of the open enroilment period means that those, reidents wlio have alreaýdy enrolled, and those who enroli before May l6th, will be protected by OMSlP ' beginning July lst. Onta rio residents who en- roll after May l6th will have to undergo a minimum threemonth waiting period before they are entitled to OMSIP coverage and bene.- fi ts, said Dr. Dymond. OMSWP head office is Iocated'at 135 St. Clair West, Toronto. Applications are already being processed by modern micro-photo metbods and computers. OLID AGE PENSIONERS Many old ýage pensioners have automatically been enrolled in OMSIP but most must fil in and submit an'application. Those who will get automnatie coverage are pensioners who are presently receiving benefit under The Ontario Old Age Assistance Act, or those pelisioners who have been declared eligible for coverage by the Ontario Departmnent of Welfare. These pensioners have already received their OMSIP registration cards. All other pensioners must complete and submit an appli- cation to receive OMSIP coverage. If you have not received an OMSIP registration card, or have flot already sent in an application formn, you mnust apply before May i6th for coverage when the Plan starts on July lst.
