Health benefits trimmed for social assistance recipients
Health, dental, optical and pharmaceutical benefits for social assistance recipients in Manitoba will be adjusted to curb costs. Family Services Minister Harold Gilleshammer cited a 65 percent rise in costs over three years, with health benefits up more than 25 percent, prompting waiting periods and narrower drug coverage. The changes take effect April 1 for provincial and municipal recipients, aiming to maintain an adequate safety net amid rising expenses.
