  • Title: Medicare in Quebec.
    Author: Backman HA.
    Journal: J Am Optom Assoc; 1976 Sep; 47(9):1205-10. PubMed ID: 798749.
    Abstract:
    A provincial health insurance system was introduced through Canada more than five years ago. The program and fee schedules for optometric and some ophthalmologic services are presented. Statistics are provided by the government concerning the utilization of optometric and some medical eye services according to the distribution of age and sex in the Quebec population. Relative costs of these services as well as the incomes of health care professionals are compared. It is hoped that this information will aid in the planning and development of the U.S. Medicare program.
