DH just told me that there is a 3 month waiting period for OHIP. WTH? This freaks me out. What am I going to do about DS? He's 3 months on Saturday and he'll be due for a well baby appointment in a month. How can I do that if he is on a waiting list?
And what happens if either of us get sick. Are we shitoutofluck?
Re: OHIP question
I got travel insurance (vistor's to Canada) through here:
http://www.travelinsurance.ca/plans/visitorsGeneral.php
It only covers emergencies though. But better than nothing=)
This is from the OHIP site:

"How can I get coverage during the waiting period?
During the waiting period, you may be able to purchase private health insurance through a private insurance company if you meet the company's eligibility requirements.
Contact a private insurance company or call the Canadian Life and Health Insurance Association Inc. at 1 800 268-8099. In Toronto, call (416) 777-2344.
The above is only a summary of the OHIP eligibility provisions of Regulation 552 for your reference. You should consult the actual regulation for the specific requirements applicable to you. The provisions in Regulation 552 prevail over this summary.
