OHIP UNINSURED LAB. TESTS -. MONEY MAKES FOR MODERN MEDICINE.

OHIP policy based on NEVER DEFINED in 44 years "MEDICAL NECESSITY". MEDICAL NECESSITY based on GUIDELINES COMMITTEES which means that here may be a 10 - 15 year delay before OHIP pays for a new test During this delay a Private patient can either pay for the test or have it done in USA (e.g. MAYO LABS vs FEDEX/UPS etc). Interesting that Canuck Federal employees are angry that they will have to pay 50% of Supplementary Medical insurance instead of only 25%.In Ontario the CPSO can attack a Doc for even INFORMING a patient about a non-OHIP paid test. Safest legally and medically to practice with patients who are financially secure.

Also patients are used as Experimental "Guinea Pigs" in Trials.Also in State Hospitals,to save money,Nurses are used to replace MD Interns.
