How does it work?
Qualification is based on age (currently if you are over 65, or under 18, or receive a disability credit, you may qualify) and net family income.
Once your application has been processed, you will receive a welcome package from Sun Life, who administers the CDCP. Once you have this, you can book your appointment with our clinic either using our
online booking tool or by calling us at
(587) 391-7373.
The CDCP does not cover the full amount of eligible treatment costs as set out by the Alberta Fee Guide (covered amount also varies depending on family net income). We will invoice you for the balance of the cost of treatment as listed in the Alberta Fee Guide not covered by the CDCP.
More details on coverage levels can be found here.
If you would like to know in advance how much of your treatment will be covered by the CDCP, and how much you will need to pay for directly, we recommend that you call us before your appointment. We will ask you for your member ID number (found in your welcome package), so that we can confirm for you your available coverage, which gives you reassurance before you come in on exactly what you have covered.
Other plans: Currently, other Alberta government dental plans are NOT coordinated with the CDCP. If you are eligible for CDCP and choose to use it, there will be no secondary coverage from another provincial plan. If you receive coverage from a private plan you will not be eligible for the CDCP at this time.
