Home My WebLink AboutThe Exeter Times-Advocate, 1975-03-06, Page 15 (2)By JACK RIDDELL M.P.P. The government has recently announced this year's summer employment program, Ontario Experience '75. Ontario Experience '75 will provide approximately 7,500 summer jobs and an additional 10,000 students will be employed as summer replacements by'the various government ministries, boards and commissions. Because of the mail strike I will be pleased to provide some details of this program and could arrange delivery of applications to the appropriate Government ministries. ' Students are encouraged to submit their applications as early as possible and they should apply to programs operating in their own home area because travel allowances, and room and board are not paid. They must also have the necessary educational requirements. Secondary classification means enrolled in secondary school at time of application. Post secondary category means students enrolled in a community college or university at time of application.

Statistics released by the Ministry of Health recently in- dicated that Ontario Health Insurance payments for March 1974, to medical and other practitioners amounted to $51.4 million. This is the second highest of any month reported in the 12 month period from April 1st, 1973 to March 31, 1974. March payments which cover all services rendered in that month were up $3.7 million over February; 1974. This increase resulted from 106,500 more patients being treated and 590,900 more services being rendered in March over February. The Ministry of Health also released annual statistics summarizing Health Insurance payments to physicians and other practitioners. The data represents gross payments for actual services rendered by practitioners for the period April 1973 to March 31, 1974. Total payment for all services was $557.5 million for 1973-74 compared to $516.6 million for 1972-73, an increase of 7.9 per- cent. This increase resulted from some 75,000 more patients being treated, and 7.2 million more services being rendered in 1973-74 than 1972-73.
