译自www.settlement.org,希望对即将登陆的筒子们有帮助,有不对的地方希望老筒子指正。How can I get health care coverage (OHIP)? To receive free public health care services, you must first have an Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) card (Health Card). If you are Resident of Ontario, you can obtain free basic health care services by showing the doctor, nurse, or other health care worker a valid OHIP card.获得免费的医疗服务,你必须获得安省健康保险计划,即健康卡。如果你是安省的居民,你可以获得免费的基本医疗服务,在享受服务时向医生,护士或其他医疗人员出示该卡即可。 The Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) pays for services that are medically necessary. These services include visits to your family doctor and specialists.安省医疗保险计划支付必要的医疗服务(估计美容等不在此列),包括你的家庭医生和专业医师。 Waiting Period等待期 You should apply for OHIP as soon as you arrive in Ontario. Generally, there is a three-month waiting period from the date you arrive until you are covered. You are also required to be present in Ontario for 153 days of the first 183 days after the day you apply for health coverage.你应在登录后尽快申请健康卡,一般来说从你登陆到健康卡生效需要3个月的时间。并且申请日起的183天里,你需要在安省停留至少153天。 During 3-month waiting period, you are encouraged to buy health insurance from a private company.在3个月的等待期里,购买健康保险是不错的选择。 According to the Canada Life and Health Insurance Association (CLHIA), not all health related expenses would be covered with this private insurance (i.e. pregnancy). They do recommend that newcomers purchase private health insurance for the 3 months that they are not covered by the OHIP/Health Card for personal health coverage. However, you MUST buy this insurance within 5 days of arriving in Ontario, or the insurance companies may not provide coverage for you.根据加拿大Canada Life and Health Insurance Association ,保险并非支付所有的医疗费用,例如怀孕。保险公司建议购买3个月的医疗保险已支付在健康卡生效前的医疗费用。你必须在登陆安省5天内购买保险,否则保险公司可能拒绝赔付。 Click here for a list of companies that provide individual health insurance for newcomers/visitors to Canada.查看提供保险的公司列表 Generally, the coverage you will buy would be for "visitors to Canada." The cost of coverage depends on the company you choose, the coverage package you choose, you and your dependent's ages, health history and any number of other issues. (Contact the Consumer Assistance Centre with any specific questions you might have - 1-800-268-8099 or 416-777-2344 in Toronto).通常购买”visitors to Canada“保险即可。保费根据公司,项目,年龄等不同而不同。 NOTE: If you are buying from your country of origin, be sure to read the policy to ensure that you are still eligible for coverage as someone who is emigrating to another country. Be sure that they cover one-way travel, many do not. As well, once you land and are no longer a resident of the country where you got the insurance, you may no longer be eligible for coverage you bought in that country. Read the policy fine print and tell the insurance company what you situation is and ask if you will still be covered before you buy. ApplyingIf you are eligible, you can get an OHIP card by completing the Ontario Ministry of Health application form called: “Registration For Ontario Health Coverage.” Application forms are available from local Ontario Ministry of Health Offices. Some doctors’ offices and hospitals also have also have application forms. You can download a form from the Ministry of Health Web site.如果你具备申请条件,可以填些申请表申请健康卡。可以在本地的医院获取申请表,也可以在网站下载download a form。 Once you have completed the application, take it to the nearest Ministry of Health Office.
