85% of Quebec's optometrists withdraw from public health insurance program starting November 22 due to stalled compensation negotiations.
Starting November 22, 85% of Quebec's optometrists will withdraw from the province's public health insurance program (RAMQ), requiring patients with public coverage to pay out-of-pocket for services.
The Association des optométristes du Québec (AOQ) cites stalled negotiations with the Health Ministry over compensation, as operating costs have risen significantly.
This change will particularly impact children, seniors, and those on social assistance who previously received free services.
