Canadian Registered Dental Plan: Urgent appointments coverage?
Has anyone who is registered ever used it for an emergency dental appointment?
I haven't used it yet but i have a tooth ache that's getting bad so i called a dentist today. They told me they didn't have any appointments for today but to call after 6pm to book for tomorrow (Saturday).
I just called and I'm not sure who handles the phone but I was told that they aren't able to book me with the federal dental plan and i should call back tomorrow when it's the clinic receptionists on the phone..
I'm not sure if that's just a limitation for the phone service or if urgent appointments on weekends are not available at all with the plan and I'll have to wait until Monday for an appointment.
So just wondering if anyone has had this issue. It seems strange to me unless it's just an issue with the service who takes calls in the evening.
