OHIP card question ? Will they know I was travelling abroad ? 3 month waiting period question
I left Canada on February 1, 2017 . The whole year I have been physically out of Canada, except for January, 2017.
I will be coming back in Januray, 2018. My OHIP card is still valid for another 3 years or so, its not expired or anything.
If you leave the province of ON for a long time, and then come back, you have to inform OHIP and there is a 3 month waiting period before your health coverage becomes active again.
Will OHIP find out, that I was abroad ? My OHIP card wasn't scanned or anything at the airport, when I left. Only my Canadian passport was.
Does CBSA or anyone informs OHIP automatically when you leave Canada ? I don't think their data bases are connected for privacy reasons.
What if I immediately visit a doctor on my return to Canada, and he swipes my OHIP, will the data base tell him, I was abroad for the past 11 months, hence I have to wait 3 months before my OHIP becomes active again.
