The application process for the CDCP plan has been designed to be accessible and straightforward, with online applications available through the official government portal.
You’ll need to have your basic information ready, including full name, birthday, SIN number, and address.
The government’s website guides you through the process step by step. Once you submit everything, you will receive a tracking code, this code allows you to check on your application status. You’ll hear back from them once they’ve reviewed your information and made a decision.
If your application is approved, you will receive thorough information about your coverage, including how to access benefits and which treatments are covered under your plan. This documentation will include important details about working with Sun Life, the insurance provider that manages CDCP claims and pre-authorizations.

Featured Review of Higson Dental Group - Dentist Grande Prairie by Pam H. on Google
I have been going to this dental office for 15 years or more. Three generations of my family go. Believe me, they go the extra mile to dispel any fears, especially for children, take the time to listen to any concerns, are professional, friendly and above all - are very good dentists, hygienists and dental assistants working in a relaxed atmosphere. Last time I was in I was surprised I could charge my cell phone while waiting for my appointment while my grandchild played in the modern equipped play area. For anyone with time restrictions this office runs on schedule.
