Each will provide the standard CI ISIP contract on a non-profit basis, at the premium rates set by the Ontario Govern- ment for OHSIP services. If you wish other services from your agent, you can arrange for them through a separate contract. Meanwhile, if you are now enrolled in OMSIP—the existing Government plan—or in a private plan, your coverage will continue without interruption provided you continue your enrollment. OHSIP will be the health care your can count on—from the Ontario Department of Health.
