FEDERATION NEWS By MRS. JOHN W. ELLIOTT Secretary • Back in the, year 1946, Hos- pital and Health Insurance was available only through organiz- ed groups. This left the rural people, retired people, self-em- ployed people, and unemployed people without a plan to obtain any health insurance. Due to the urgent need for a plan to, provide health protec- tion for these people on an in- dividual basis, the Ontario Fed- eration of Agriculture jointly with the Co-operative Union" of Ontario petitioned the Ontario Legislature to enact a special act under which could be incor- porated our County Health Un- its. In compliance with the above petition, the Ontario Leg- islature enacted a special act known as the Prepaid Medical Service Act. Under this act which was under the jurisdic- tion of the Ontario Department of Agriculture, nearly all coun- ties in Ontario sponsored by the Ontario Federation of Agricul- ture and the Co-operation Un- ion of Ontario, as well as local county units of Federations of Agriculture and Credit Unions. 'These county units have op- erated very successfully and have grown to such an extent that their administration was transfered from the Department of Agriculture to the. Ontario Department of Insurance. Un- der this ,department the Medi- cal.. Co-operative are now lic- ensed'and are operating under their supervision and inspec- tion. Up to 85 per cent of all the farmers in some counties have been enrolled in their Medical Co-operative. "Now, in what is a preceden.t•making agreement in Canada," states Ted Schofield, Provincial Secre- tary, Co-operative Medical Ser- vices Federation of Ontario, "we have contracted with the Ontario Division of the Cana- dian Chiropractic Association to provide chiropractic care for our co-operative members par- ticipating in the program. A member of a participating co- operative Will be able to avail himself (unlimited) service whe- ther he is at home or travelling within the province. This is the first known instance of a consumer sponsored group se- curing the province -wide ser- vices of a professional group andwhere a true 'prepayment' plan to look after the profes- sional fees has been establish- isSY;y%,;if3i.`s�:.fi�..��.:•`}'.v,.,h'•�'S:2:�cSA�f�:.:�%.;r:,>.'•;L 1963 Chev.

Concerning the amount of coverage, Mr. Schofield an- nounced that "pre-existing con- ditions are covered and there is no restriction due to factors of health or age. Particular em- phasis is being placed on the provision of preventive care. As a case in point, we feel that a larger number of the many spinal injuries happening each year could be avoided if proper attention is available to those persons who are suscept- ible to such injuries. The Co-operative Medical Ser- vices Federation of Ontario pro- vides prepaid health care in- surance to many thousands of self-employed people in, the province, as well as to employee groups, through 29 non-profit medical co-operatives, each of which is a local autonomous unit within' the Federation," Mr. Schofield explained. The effective date of Huron County's participation in the new programe is June 1, the contract having been signed this week between Huron Co- operative Medical Servives and the Ontario Chiropractic 4sso- ciation.
