Manitoba Plans Compulsory Medicare After No Premium Rejected
Premier Walter Weir announced Manitoba is drafting a compulsory premium plan to meet federal Medical Care Act criteria after Ottawa rejected the province's no premium proposal. The plan would cap yearly family costs at 100 with a $50 deductible and 20 percent co-insurance, and coordinate hospital fee collection with the Manitoba Medical Insurance Corporation. The government aims to operate the scheme by year end with input from the Manitoba Medical Insurance Corporation, Manitoba Medical Association, and Manitoba Hospital Commission.
