Premium Will Cover: Dependants Up To Age 21 Beginning September 1st, de- pendent children will be covered by Ontario Hospital Insurance under the "family" premium until they reach their 21st birthday. An official announce- metn of the change, which was first mentioned by Dr. M. B. Dymond, Minister of Health, in the Legislature on June 7th, was published by the Ontario Hospital Services Commission recently. The age change will also apply to the Blue Cross and CUMBA semi-private coverage for which about one-third of the insured residents remit ad- ditional premiums through the Commission. Dr. John B. Neilson, Chairman of the Commission, indicated that the new age limit is being introduced because of the in- creasing number of students among young people in this age group. He added that only unmarried, unemployed child- ren are eligible for coverage as dependants under their parents' or guardian's insurance & that separate premiums must be | paid when the dependant reach- es age 21, or marries, or be- comes regularly employed. However, Dr. Neilson did ex- plain that exemption is provided for students who take tempor- ary employment during their school vacations. The annual reduction in prémium income to the Commission, due to the new age limit, is estimated at 23.5 million. Dependants over 21 The family premium also covers a person over the age limit (21) who is financially de- pendent upon his or her insured parent or guardian because of physical or mental infirmity. However, such person must have been a dependant of the parent or guardian before rea- ching age 21. Refunds Many young people 19 and 20 years of age who will now qualify as their parents' depend- ants are already paying premi- ums. Such persons may claim a refund of premiums which have been paid to cover them beyond September 1, 1965. The official announcement will con- tain a form which pay-direct members can use to obtain the refund. The Commission is gearing itself to handle all requests for refunds as quickly as possible. Refunds, therefore, should be re- quested immediately, but even then it may take several weeks before the Commission can deal with the thousands of requests as each one must be handled in- dividually. There are thousands of pieces of "literature in banks and hos- pitals around the province which indicate the former age limit of 19. Dr. Neilson pointed out that if the reader reads age 21, in- stead of age 19 as printed, that is all that is necessary. About 99% of Ontario's resi- dents are now insured through this government-sponsored plan and almost one person in six is admitted to hospital each year. Every day, this year, benefits are being provided to a value of over $900,000 which will make the annual total some- thing in the enighbourhood of $340 million.
